Kapiti Aero Club visitors

We have a couple of aircraft visiting from Kapiti Aero Club today, from both ends of the GA trainer fleet spectrum.

The first to arrive was ZK-FPI, a C152. Nothing to get too excited about perhaps, except that C152's don't come to Wellington too often - perhaps a consequence of Wellington's reputation for tricky winds.

The second is a Partenavia P68C, ZK-KAP. In New Zealand, the Partenavia is popular for both initial twin ratings, as well as multi-instrument rating training.

  1. What was behind ZK-KAP in the second side on photo? Apart from the Air National jetstream, is it a saab? Or something ex air nz link?

  2. I believe that to be an Air National BAE Jetstream J32 ZK-ECJ [or perhaps ZK-ECI], close cousin of the rather more famous ZK-ECN :-(
