damn, that sucks

A specialize task and work involved, I did some volunteer work on the DC-3s and twice on Anodovers in the early and mid 1980, that was a mission paint striping around the rivets , today's aircraft are much easier, another company lost, surprised since NZ aerospace industry is so close, maybe they will buy and rehire staff. ?

Not much to that TECNAM left ... ya thinking of replacing the shell and replace it on ya SUZUKI chassie ... that would be a first, think of the head turning in the streets and suburbs of Hamilton ... indicators are easy .. just follow the rudder movement

[deeknow]

That Tecnam would make a great home cockpit shell huh

You can see from down on Airport rd 36R end - their working off the end of 18R so may be extending?

[Ian Warren]

With Hamilton getting even busier, surprised they are not looking at at taxiway parallel, maybe in the next decade.

[Lindstrim]

Too much effort I think.

Also is there enough land on the terminal side to allow a taxiway down there? It's been awhile since I was there.
