A Kat and a Ghost

Saturday I went on a flight from Wellington to Paraparaumu in Wellington Aero Club's Piper PA28-161, ZK-KAT. I dropped a couple of people off who were collecting another aircraft then headed back.

Coming back I needed to keep my speed up - turns out I was ahead of a US Navy Gulfstream IV/ C-20G, registered 16-5152. Have a look at the two photos of it - on the right-hand side there are fewer windows and a large cargo door.

Finally, my chariot for the day, Piper PA28-161, ZK-KAT.

Great photos. FYI, tail number is 165152 no hyphen. GHOST is normally a US Marine Corps callsign thou?
