Stopped in at the airport whilst cycling by, and saw something unusual. First shot is of an American Mooney M20J with an American registration. Not often that you see an American registered aircraft at Wanaka



and this 2 seater turbine helicopter, which might possibly be an Auroa 2 seater from the NZ company, but can anybody identify it? Got an Expermental label on it anyway, but what is it??











and no prizes for guessing this one



smooth landings.

Thanks for identifying the helicopter, it was a new one for me and I could not trace the registration. Definitely not one for larger pilots!!!

smooth landings.
