Christchurch Today 09-12-2014

 In pasture green lurk the Taylorcraft 20 Ranchwagon ZK-BQM (c/n 20-014) of the BQM Syndicate and the Piper PA-28-140D Cherokee ZK-DEH (c/n 28-7125556) as listed to Eddie Gifkins. BQM was turfed out of the ANZ Sports and Social Club Southern (Inc)'s hangar along with the ANZ's Clubs aircraft - and the hangar removed - with the site being redeveloped to house the ANZ School of Engineering that is currently housed in one of the old WWII hangars which is due for demolition shortly.
 Cessna 172S Skyhawk SP ZK-KAZ (c/n 172S10406 began its NZ life as ZK-XPS from 19-05-2010 before changing to ZK-KAZ on 14-03-2012 and joining the Kapiti Districts Aero Club Inc at Paraparaumu.
 The Aerospatiale-Alenia ATR72-212A ZK-MCF2 is c/n 600.
It was registered to Mount Cook Airline Ltd on 24-11-1999.
The 1975 model Cessna 402B VH-SVQ (c/n 402B0601) is no stranger to NZ as it was an import from Japan by Wing and Rotor and operated here as ZK-FXS between October 1991 and January 1999 by Kaipara Excavators Ltd. It was parked outside the Aero Club this afternoon.
Below is a grotty copy of a shot of her as ZK-FXS taken at Westport on 11-04-1994.
