A general overview of the aircraft on the field

Was very nice to catch up with Simon and his 120!

Don't often see this one out of Rotorua!

Only the second time i've seen this aircraft, good to see it back in the air!

Awesome to see Doug Brooker bring his fancy looking Rans Outbound!

My only new one from the day, always nice to see a Gyro!

Next event should hopefully be Koptuaroa Fly-in on 1st of December, hoping for good weather!
