this thread is very old now - I have heard Laurie Peppard has passed away. His 150s were DIM and KXI. I think SIDS got them both.
His old Apache ECY has also gone to god I believe. He sold that around 2004 for $50 grand I remember him telling me.
Laurie moved back to the old ANZ bank building in about 2002 or so next to Galaxy which was closed by then. Laurie had about 5 or 6 planes
at the height of his business, all parked along the road just past where the roundabout is now when you come off the freeway. He let ECY go
then WXZ and just flew the 150s for the last few years.
