The first was Partenavia P68C, ZK-SMB. This aircraft was flown by "Captain Jase" and one of his students. The second was Cessna 172N, ZK-JAZ. The last was another Cessna, C172SP ZK-JRA.
The occupants of these aircraft were originally going to visit Queenstown, but when that didn't work out, it was a trip to various places at the top of the South Island, such as Karamea, Omaka, Nelson and the like.
I was especially pleased to see these aircraft as I flew from Auckland Aero Club for several years, including a 3 year period where I was Club Captain. I have flown ZK-JAZ and ZK-JRA myself - in fact I first flew ZK-JRA when it was brand spanking new with around 30 hours on the clock.
First picture is of Captain Jase and his student, followed by the Partenavia then the Cessnas.
