About to fly the coop........


At the holding point for runway 03 at Ardmore, Mike Condon photo
(the engine is running, the prop sitting at idle and I didn't have the box brownie set up to show that it was actually spinning!)

Pacific Aerospace 750XL P2-SDE (is this ex ZK-KBA c/n 166?) slid into Ardmore on the afternoon of 18Jun, presumably from Hamilton. After a brief stop the 750 paired up with Cessna 172 ZK-WKK which was to be employed as a photo ship and both aircraft departed just before 4pm, however the Cessna made a quick air turnback due to an oil problem so the 750 returned also. P2-SDE departed again a little later however I'm not sure if the photo shot took place or not. Greybeard was also on location so maybe able to advise.
