And more trivia...
Piper Cub ZK-BKV was the first aircraft to fly under the harbour bridge - during the official opening when several thousand Aucklanders were walking the bridge. Flown by an Auckland Aero Club member, Eric Barfoot, who made a number of passes and then returned to the club to hang up his licence, so to speak. I inherited the newspaper cuttings (great photos) his logbook, fine, letter of ban from the club for life etc. when I ran the BKV syndicate. We also gave the old fella a ride in BKV a few years ago, guess he must have passed away by now.
LOST.
