Air Milford's Caravan is on the way...
Air Milford's new Caravan has left Athens and had landed at Rhodes enroute to New Zealand.
SX-SKV has been placed on the Australia register as VH-SKH for the ferry flight out to New Zealand where it will become ZK-SKA.
Ironically I took a desperation shot of it as SX-SKV when in Athens on the the 1st of July 2012...
It really was a desperation shot, maximum zoom, heavily cropped and as you see a lot of heat haze.
Here it is in Aussie registration but with a true Kiwi look...
I snaffled this photo from the Air Milford Facebook page... https://www.facebook.com/pages/Air-Milford/123243947735710
There will undoubtedly be more photos of it appearing on their Facebook page...
You can track the ferry flight's progress on https://spotwalla.com/tripViewer.php?id=873f52b9561331fe8
The Air Milford website indicates it is due to arrive in NZ about the 10th of January
