Oxford 'Wings With Wheels' last Sunday. #2

 The annual Lions Club Oxford Wheels With Wings fly in on a private airstrip on the outskirts of town took place last Sunday January the 18th.

Over twenty aircraft arrived in less than perfect weather.

The old familiar MacDonald Syndicate Auster 5D ZK-BGU c/n 1757 attracted a good number of viewers, which required a certain amount of patients to get a people free photograph.

It has been briefly mentioned several times previously Here

Karl West of West Aero Engineering with his Cessna 180A ZK-BVG c/n 50068 was center stage and received much attention from the locals.

The only Piper PA-14 Family Cruiser on the NZ aircraft register is ZK-BZL c/n 14-132 - previously mentioned HERE

It joined its current listed owner CNC Aviation of Eyrewell in December of 2023.

Roy Hill's real tidy Fletcher FU24-950 ZK-EGS c/n 241 has been based nearby since late 2024.

The average age of these four aircraft is knocking on 69 years.

With ZK-EGS being the pup at a young 49 years.
