Helicopters in the South Waikato

A visit to the Heli A1 base north of Otorohanga today found 2 of their 3 AS350 sprayers present including the latest fleet addition, AS350B2 ZK-IAI6 which was imported from the US in mid 2021.

Also present was AS350BA ZK-IZZ which was originally imported from Japan in  2002 as ZK-HLX3, becoming HZZ4 in December 2002, and moving onto IZZ in 2003.    A1 acquired it in 2007.

Further up SH 3 near Kihikihi the privately owned R44 ZK-IOO was parked up.   This was imported from Belgium in 2008 and acquired by its current Te Awamutu owner in 2010.
