Air Chathams Convair

It has been a while, but Saturday saw an Air Chathams General Dynamics Allison Convair 440/580, ZK-CIF parked up outside the Aero Club. I'm not sure how long it had been there [probably not more than a few hours] but it departed that afternoon with a planeload of punters, so I'm guessing on a charter flight somewhere.

I still haven't had a look though one of these [apart from one in a Finnish museum a couple of years ago].... must organise that one day. In any case, it's good to see these old birds still flying around [Air Chathams also operated a DC3]!
