What is the correct designation for ACM?

Avro 694 Sport Avian MkIVM or Avro 616 Sports Avian?

I watched Keith Trillo depart NORDO from Wellington on its final flight from the Capital.
I was at my favourite spot, Crash Gate D above the Calabar Rd access tunnel. I waved like mad and he waved back.

I realised that I had more than likely seen the last (non-radio equipped) biplane depart Wellington.
Just as I was aware all those years ago when I watched an RNZAF Tiger Moth land over the airport works, from my Aunties place at Moa Point.
This was just before Rongotai closed and my Aunties house was demolished.
I told my dad that it was a sight me might not see again.

Karma Neutral. Ego-friendly.

Is there actually something there?
All I get are search boxes that, whatever you select, always come back with the quite unhelpful 'At least one document set should be selected'

Retirement is something for the young.
Once you are old you never seem to have the time.

The Red Baron Group Captain The English had hit upon a splendid joke. They intended to catch me or to bring me down.
