Cessna 172N ZK-EJR at Kaipara Flats Today 5-07-2024

The long term Kaipara Flats resident Cessna 172N ZK-EJR is back in its hangar with a new owner and after some major work:

You may think that it still looks the same as it did when it was delivered to the Rodney Aero Club was back in 1977 but in fact it has had a complete new repaint into its original colours.  Its new owner told me that he wanted to keep it in its historical scheme rather than a new one.  It sure is shiny!
