Speaking about REX

ZK-REX4 was in Christchurch Town on Nov 2nd in all its radiant beauty. Here it is parked outside the Canterbury Aero Club. It's been flying for just over four years now behind its 180hp Lycoming O-360.

FYI.

ZK-REX1 was a Cessna 310B c/n 35654 for about a year 1959-1960. It went to OZ and carried about five VH & one P2 registration until it was cancelled following a nose gear collapse in August 1986 at Bankstown.
