Aero L29 ZK-SSU arrives at its new home.

Simon Brown of Timaru has provided these neat pics of Aero L-29 ZK-SSU (c/n 395100) arriving at its new home in Timaru on Sunday 31-07-2011. It flew from New Plymouth via Woodbourne and was met just out of Timaru by the Piper PA31-325 Navajo ZK-NOW2.
It is now housed in the same hangar as its comrade Aero L-29 ZK-VAU.

  3. SSU and VAU have been sitting at Christchurch Airport for about two years now. I would imagine that they are both stuffed. Especially in light of the AD on the engine fuel system components. http://www.caa.govt.nz/assets/legacy/Airworthiness_Directives/Ex-military.pdf.
    Pity, I used to like seeing them fly around the city.
