Koputaroa Breakfast Flyin Today 5-12-2021

The Manawatu Aviation Club held a breakfast flyin this morning at Peter Kernohan's airstrip at Koputaroa, and 30 or so aircraft flew in from Paraparaumu, the Manawatu and as far away as Hastings.  Jordan Elvy was there and I chose a few of his photos that I thought were of interest:

Zenith CH 601XL ZK-RZB has been owned by a Hastings owner since 2/12/20.

The Tecnam P 2002 Sierra ZK-KFA now has Feilding Flying Club titles.

And Mike Crene's Titan T 51B Mustang ZK-DBG2 was also present.

Thanks for the photos Jordan

  2. Hi Anonymous - ZK-DBG the second is a Titan T 51 Mustang that has the high back of the P 51B Mustang. This is built from a modified kit from Titan Aircraft. All our other Titan Mustangs are T 51D models that are based on the teardrop canopy of the P 51D Mustang. Have a search on the blog to see this - type in Titan Mustang into the search box at the top left of the home screen and hit the little magnifying glass icon, and it will bring up all the many posts we have done on Titan Mustangs, and you will also find ZK-DBG the first which was a T 51D that was also built by Mike Crene.
