Wings over Wairapapa - Part Five

This morning we share just a few shots.

Firstly we have the Aeronca 100 ZK-AMW. A post made on the NZ Civair blog states the following:

 The Aeronautical Corporation Aeronca 100 U/L ZK-AMW2 (c/n AB105) spent its early years from 1938 until 1949 in Australia. It had aspirations to become ZK-AYM but this did not eventuate and it ended in Fiji as VQ-FAJ. It was damaged then stored there until shipped to NZ in October 1965 for another period of storage - some twenty five more years of it. Kip Netherclift acquired it and did a major rebuild and it was flown again on 31-10-2006 by Jerry Chisum.






Second aircraft is the Pither Replica ZK-JAH. The NZ Civair blog has again covered this unique flying machine: http://nzcivair.blogspot.co.nz/2014/11/the-pither-monoplane-replica-at.html
