Recent Additions

A couple of recently arrived helicopters have made their way on the NZ CAA register.

MBB BO-105 CBS-4 ZK-HAX c/n S888 was registered to Oceania on 05 August and was noted flying on 11 August.  It is one of four BO-105's to have arrived from the Middle East and were first noted on 30 June : http://mrcaviation.blogspot.com/2011/06/interesting-sighting.html

Only one other BO-105 is current on the NZ register, this being ZK-HYT with Rick Lucas Helicopters and carries the c/n S824.  Interestingly, it arrived in the country and this time last year.

  1. Interesting choice of aircraft. Must have been a steal, why else would you buy one when the 429 offers so much more..
