Something New for Twenty Two!

For many years whenever I have visited Tauranga airport I have looked in at Chris Hoskins' hangar to see the progress he has made on his heavily modified Long Eze.  Now thanks to Neil Williams, we have photos of the Long Eze doing taxy runs on Christmas Day 2021: 

You can see that Chris's Long Eze has Berkut style canopies (which open like a F 4 Phantom), and a retractable main undercarriage.  I understand that power is from a modified Mazda rotary engine that produces lots of power.  It is not registered yet.

Chris Hoskins is no stranger to constructing Long Ezes, having previously built both ZK-LEZ and ZK-LET.

Thanks very much for the photos Neil
