Across the ditch - next stop Omaka! from Rodney's Aviation Ramblings by noreply@blogger.com (Rodney)

Nanchang visitor from Rodney's Aviation Ramblings by Rodney
I arrived at the Aero Club early today, expecting a good day to go flying, and I wasn't at all disappointed. On arrival I saw something very interesting - a Chinese Nanchang CJ-6! Warbird aircraft don't visit Wellington often, so it was good to see. ZK-JQS is registered to the Omaka Real Flying Club, based [not surprisingly] at Omaka airfield at Blenheim. The first three pictures were taken at Wellington. The last two? Guess where I got to today.... Omaka :-) Enjoy!
