A much quieter day today after yesterday’s fly-in.
 SOCATA TB10 Tobago ZK-JIE (c/n 1306) spent its first ten or so years in Australia as VH-YTA  before ferrying in to Auckland International and Ardmore via Norfolk Island on
27-11-2003. 
It became ZK-JIE for Www.air2there.com Ltd of Paraparaumu on 16-12-2003 and moved up to the RNZAF Base Auckland Aviation Sports Club Inc from 25-11-2005.
Cessna 182Q ZK-XLT (c/n 18266451) was built in 1978 and served three years in the States before spending the best part of nine years in Canada followed by three in Australia.
