The Rodney Aero Club and the Waitemata Vintage Car Club held a very successful Wings and Wheels event at Kaipara Flats airfield today. It was a fantastic Autumn day and the turnout of both aircraft and cars exceeded everyone's expectations.
There were some wonderful aircraft there that deserve a separate post so I will start off with Stan and Gilly Smith's amazing DH 84 Dragon ZK-AXI which is one of only a very few flying worldwide (maybe only three?):
The Dragon flies a flat approach with no flaps - rather like my Jodel D9.
A wheeler touchdown...
and the tailwheel is nearly down.
Taxying back - the airfield was manicured and the backdrop is nice.
