Taylor Monoplane ZK-DQG at Whitianga Yesterday 30-12-2022

The Mercury Bay Aero Club held an open day at Whitianga yesterday and by all accounts it was very successful.  Bruce Cooke drove up and has posted some photos on Facebook.  One of his photos caught my eye as I have a soft spot for VW powered single seaters:

ZK-DQG is one of six Taylor Monoplanes on the register but I reckon three of them are out of the air.  I think the three that are still flying are ZK-CPC and ZK-CZH as well as ZK-DQG.  Another one ZK-CRS is likely to be restored to flying condition in the future.

Thanks for the use of the photo Bruce
