Not your average museum, we want your stories! PLEASE get in touch with us if you have any fond (or even not so fond... although haven't heard any YET) memories of the aircraft. We want to preserve these memories for alltime.<br /><br />Paul and Tricia<br />Mangaweka International Airport<br />P.O.Box 69<br />Mangaweka<br />info@mangaweka.co.nzDC3 Mangawekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14081134116149716691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6172387939495342053.post-36666425027596557732010-01-29T14:52:01.579+13:002010-01-29T14:52:01.579+13:00Speaking as one of the new operators of Mangaweka ...Speaking as one of the new operators of Mangaweka International Airport, it is great to see some discussion. The cafe had shifted from the DC-3 aeroplane over 3 years now so we have just given things a facelift, including the DC-3 which has now been painted.<br />We have plans on organising an international story competition, getting everyone to write in their tales of the plane - so they are not forgotten.DC3 Mangawekahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14081134116149716691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6172387939495342053.post-24038377758083495292009-05-13T18:41:00.000+12:002009-05-13T18:41:00.000+12:00Excellent news.

So what with the two Art galleries, a craft shop, pub, and prospect of a new Antiques shop opening in the old River Centre shop, despite the "current economic climate" (yawn!) things seem to moving ahead unhindered in mangaweka at least!
