Hi, folks!

I know that here are a lot of admirers of Milton's DHC-7. It seems like at least two or three of them made their way to New Zealand.
Here's one:

Markus , Wicked Job ! She's just how i remembered ... 1985 Airshow at Wigram in Christchurch .. Damn near ripped his wings off.. pre-display jitters Ha :icon_lol:
 
Very nice! I flew the "Quad Otter" out in the Alutians as captain for about a year. Quite a plane for what we used it for and I have always been fond of Milton's version. One of his many classics!

Cheers: T
 
Go get it!

Upload finished.

It's 9:34 PM at NZ now, first scheduled Newman flight from Christchurch to Queenstown (#115) starts at 7:00 AM, no need to hurry... :wiggle:

Have fun!
Cheers,
Markus.
