Lockheed Super Constellation

Lockheed Super Constellation. This an Airfix kit of the piston engined prop liner and is based around the old Hasegawa kit. It's a bit basic so I opened out the engine intakes a little but the rest is out of the box. It has decal options for 3 aircraft and I went with the HARS Connie which had a tech issue when I was in Oz in 2018 meaning that I didn't get to see it.

Lockheed Hudson at Omaka Heritage Centre

This Hudson, from the same stable as the museum's Mosquito, could potentially be restored to flying condition at some point but for the present is displayed in this impresseive jungle crash diorama.

Airworthy Neptune

Although it was 3 months or so ago I was pleased to see that the HARS Neptune that I saw in their hangar back in 2018 has now been returned to the air making it the only current airworthy example.

Wanaka Sunday show - De Havilland

There was a good level of De Havilland content at Wanaka primarily Moth related but including a Rapide, Chipmunk and, of course, the show highlight the newly restored Mosquito.
