Microlight Aircraft of New Zealand - Fledgeling ZK-PJH at Waitohi in 1985

I have previously posted about Pterodactyl microlights of New Zealand including the couple of Fledgelings that have been registered here and you can find that post HERE  In that post both of the registered Fledelings had canards and in the post I said I was at a loss to explain this.

Now Marcus Bridle of Marcus's Old Aircraft Photos on Facebook has come up with an early photo of ZK-PJH taken at Waitohi in 1985 that shows it without the canard:

So that explains why is was registered as a Fledgeling (as well as having the direct drive propeller).

Thanks very much for the photo Marcus.
