Two and a half hours South of North Shore (includes a hold up for an accident on the Northern Motorway and a stop for a coffee and muffin at the BP on the Southern Motorway) you get to Te Kowhai airfield. It was quiet around 5 on the Saturday afternoon but it was good to see the facilities being used for a works Christmas party with bouncy castles and other rides for the many kids - this sort of thing will make the airfield an established part of the community.
The nice straight tail Cessna 172 ZK-EHA2 was departing as I arrived. It is registered to EHA Ltd of Hamilton.
And so I carried on to my overnight stay with Number 2 grandson (and aircraft enthusiast), at Te Kuiti.
