First showing on our register on 09-11-2021 was the Schleicher ASW 27-18E ZK-GEM3 for Chris Streat.
Being a motor glider and built in Germany it was initially placed on their civil register as D-KGGP before transportation out to Australia where it became VH-GTF2 on 31-10-2007 with Graham Parker of Rose Park, South Australia.
Ownership passed to David Holmes of Kellyville in New South Wales from 04-07-2019 until being cancelled from the Australian register on 10-06-2021.
Photo below is of it as VH-GTF.
It was shipped into Tauranga and then moved down to Springfield where it was listed as ZK-GEM3 on 09-11-2021 and carried out its first flight in New Zealand on Thursday 18-11-2021.
These two photos were taken at Springfield by Aaron Murphy.
