I fly 6 times per month. 4 of those are with Eagle. by my reckoning, 70% of my Eagle flights have been on ZK-EAH. It is ridiculous!! I have never hit EAG or EAK, the black beautys. EAH is my aircraft :-)
ReplyDeleteI flew on EAH out of Hokitika yesterday... I have yet to fly on J K and Q
ReplyDeleteA, F, G, K, for Eagle. I have flown on every Q300, Boeing and ATR
ReplyDeleteI first flew in ZK CIP at Whanganui Aero Club about 1966/67. In about 1970 we bought her and established Ardmore Flying School. I did first solo in her about 1972. Soft spot for this old girl.
