Different set to the ones that went around Ohakea, these ones look newer, they've now increased the size of the hole right over the top of the airframe. last ones I saw looked like it was just one side missing.

Blimey, I didn't envisage the hole being that large.
How big will the finished door be in the end?

I was out with a mate last night who is working on the project in Texas and was back in NZ for a week. The prototype airframe is in Texas at L3. The system is still undergoing factory software development and testing and is more or less on track. I don't think the prototype is due back in NZ until mid 2008. Sounds like it is all going well and will be an awesome system when complete.
