Kairanga Aviation, Palmerston North, NZ.

[Jump Complete]

Hi, has anyone got contact details for Kairanga Aviation in North Island NZ?
I believe they own the Percival EP-9 ZK-PWZ, ex G-APWZ, flown (and forced landed) in 1970 by my late father. I have found their address on the NZ Aircraft register but no other details.

Nothing in the online phone directory I'm sorry

Thanks. My guess is that it might be an individual creating a company to operate their aircraft rather than an actual business.
Could always use the address to .. gasp.. send them a letter I guess!

Have you tried Googling Hallet Griffin? I'm guessing he will know something.

I was going to suggest that

Google search mentions his name in some of the results

And we may have success

Great chaps! Thanks! Probably shouldn’t be thinking about this right now as have 737Ng tech exam tomorrow. (Was taking a break at my desk yesterday by looking through Dad’s old logbooks which got me thinking of this) but will follow it up shortly!
Actually probably time for a beer now (2045 UK time) rather than study. If I don’t know it now..
