SAANZ Flyin at Ashburton Wrap Up

I thought I would do a final post from the SAANZ flyin at Ashburton, of aircraft that I reckon were attending their first SAANZ annual flyin:

Rohan Rudd's Kitfox III ZK-FYM has had a long road to its first SAANZ flyin.  Greast to see it there.

East Canterbury Aviation's new Rans S7 ZK-SRB was flown up from Rangitata Island by Ross Brodie.

Murray Belfield flew his Pazmany PL 9 Storch replica ZK-MWB all the way from Tokoroa which was a great effort

Rans S 10 Sakota ZK-SIO is the ex Brent Thompson example, now owned by J S McPhail of Christchurch.  It may have attended a previous SAANZ flyin but not after its rebuild.

The oldest home built aircraft in the country, the Lincoln Sport ZK-BMV has been to a previous AACA flyin at Masterton but I include it here as it has been essentially rebuilt since then.  See HERE

It was also great to see a real oldie at the flyin;  the AND Syndicate's Piper J3L-65 Cub ZK-AND2 from Kaiapoi.  It is photo'd here with a nice period backdrop.

Our newest Karatoo is the Flying Road Cone Syndicate's ZK-KTW which flew from Rangiora.

From much further afield Lloyd Morris flew his new RV 7 ZK-LDM from North Shore.

And David Wilkinson flew his DR 107 One Design ZK-EZG2 from Ardmore.

Thanks very much to the Hairy Mole Rat and Jordan Elvy for the photos.
