Odds and Ends at Ardmore

CTC Aviation's Cessna 172S ZK-WKT carried out a touch and go at Ardmore 16Nov, first time I've seen this example.


17Nov early afternoon saw the departure of a Pacific Aerospace 750XL from Ardmore and it headed south. I hung around for to possibly return as thought I heard the pilot report heading to the training area, however after an hour still no sign of it. Anyone know which one it was, I didn't catch the callsign. It appeared to be all white.

Tecnam 2002 ZK-NPS was carrying out local flights and is currently registered to a Tauranga address.


Avid Flyer Speedwing ZK-RWT was also carrying out circuits this afternoon.


Massey Aviation's Diamond DA42 Twinstar ZK-MTS was positioned nicely outside Hawker Pacific.

  2. They ferried:
    London, Canada to York, Nebraska, then to Bullhead, Arizona/Nevada border. Then to Sacramento, Hilo, Christmas Island, Pago Pago, Nadi and Auckland. There is an article in the latest Kiwiflyer magazine (issue 7 Oct/Nov 2009).
