New RV 7A's at Black Sands Flyin, Raglan

I am just back from the Black Sands Flyin at Raglan today. The weather was a bit breezy but there were a lot of aeroplanes there. I met ZK-CKE there (he was organising the event), and he said there had been around 70 aircraft today at various times. He promised to post some photos from the beach landing event tomorrow.

Being the first fly in of the "summer" there were several new aircraft there. The first was Rex Newman's third Vans RV 7A, the second ZK-REX which had flown from Blenhiem. This aircraft was first registered on 14/7/09.
And there was another new Vans RV 7A there - ZK-RRV owned by R McAinch and A Thompson of Whangarei. Two very nice looking aircraft.
I will post more from the fly in tomorrow.
