PK is not retiring just yet.... just a new job and a shiney fast plane.
He's going to fly Lowe Corp's newly aquired Cheyene 4, ZK-RUR, to be based at NZHS. New hangar to be built between the exisiting HBECAC hangars and the threshold of grass RWY29.
Eastern portion of Rwy29 to be sealed to act as a taxiway for the Cheyene with work already started.
Word is that PK will still be avail to AHB & HBECAC as a flt examiner when he's not off to OZ or Fiji in his new toy.
Haven't heard of any planned departure parties but after 30yrs service I'm sure the club will put on a gathering of some sort.

Who is going to take over there? Who else has all his qualifications? The bay is a nice place to live for the right person...anyone applied?
