ZK-KVZ at NZHK

The Cessna U206G Stationair 6 ZK-KVZ (c/n 20606144) flew into Auckland from Pago Pago as N6110Z on 25-11-1983 from Illinois in the US. It joined the ZK register on 23-12-1983.
These first two shots shot it at New Plymouth on 28-10-1984 whilst it was in the care of United Aviation Ltd of Palmerston North.
In mid-April of 1998 it went to Wellair Ltd of Paraparaumu and then over to Westair Flying Ltd at Hokitika from 05-06-1998.
It moved back to Palmerston North to the Manawatu Districts Aero Club from 26-07-1999 and is seen below at Feilding on 21-02-2001.
Less than two months later (18-11-99) it transferred over to Alpine Hunting Adventures Ltd
Now fitted with the IO-550 engine it was seen at Hokitika on 22-04-2015 by Ben from Wilderness Wings.
