Road Trip #2: Waikato Aero Club

While on the road trip, I scheduled some time to go visit another blogger, Euan of the Making a Kiwi Fly blog [Gidday Euan!]. Unfortunately there was no flight due to the weather, but I did manage to get some photos.

There were a few things that had changed since I last flew in to Hamilton [several years ago]. The parallel grass runway was dug up - apparently they are putting in another sealed runway. Secondly, the new tower had been built - quite an impressive structure!

Anyway, to the pictures. Top to bottom are:

Piper PA28-181 Archer, ZK-UFS
Alpha R2160, ZK-WKF
Cessna 172M, ZK-DRQ
Cessna 180K, ZK-JFG
Control Tower
Waikato Aero Club building plus Control Tower

    Hi Nick,

    I don't recall anything unusual in the fencing - no more than last time I was there several years ago...?

    Cheers,

    Rodney
