Not all that often seen about the country is the Stemme S 10-V ZK-GSI (c/n 10-39M) of David Crail from Blenheim.
We noted it at Wanaka at Easter : See :- wanaka-visitors-park
You will notice that the nose cone is in the forward position to allow the two bladed prop to fold out.
The engine is located in the fuselage below the wing - note the air intake - and the prop drive shaft passes through the cockpit between the seating.

The other is based at New Plymouth owned by Brett Emney
ReplyDeleteGSI visited Nelson from "over the "hill", (Blenheim) late October 2016. Impressive 23M wingspan!
ReplyDeletethe one in New Plymouth was the first one Dave Craill bought into the country
