That hangar is full of all sorts of interesting things. The white fuselage you can see a small part of to the immediate right of the 337 is what's left of ZK-EAT which was crashed at Ardmore a couple of years ago. The wing on the left is part of ZK-PLN which is a pretty speedy looking homebuilt although I've never seen it flying. There's also a Stearman, Mooney, Europa monowheel, disassembled Auster, a Cessna 150 as well as a whole pile of old pieces of wings and fuselages. Next time I'm in there I'll take more photos.

My bad Paul didnt explain myself at all well, meant my Uniden Scanner that I use for Chch Airport comms as opposed to the one I linked above. Might see what the other one goes for, might be calling on your help for the rigging of that antenna if I buy it !! Thanks again for all the assitance in the above posts Cheers Mark

Ive been on a Lufthansa A340s and the interiors are now pretty nice. They have seatback IFE and the seats are really comfortable. The A340's 2-4-2 configuration means wider seats than a 3-3-3 (or worse 3-4-3) Boeing 777. I also find the A340s smoother and quieter, but thats just me /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif /> Most of Lufthansa's 747s have terrible interiors; no seatback IFE, uncomfortable seats, not much legroom. At least the service is nice. Some Lufthansa's 747s have been refurbished. D-ABVK (which I flew on before it had be...

I shouldn't skim read! AvSec once had a go at me for having a rifle scope in my carry on (because I didn't want to put it in checked baggage because I know how they treat bags). Then they accused me of having a pistol in there after seeing that :/ Then there was the torch...
