Hi all! As part of my ever-evolving collection of WAW aircraft I seek photographs of the following PAC Crescos: EFS s/n 024 LTW (not sure if it wore these marks) s/n 031 TMM s/n 020 TML s/n 030 with Taumarunui Co-Op and Far North LTR s/n 003, particularly in Rangitikei Air Services colours Is there any way of finding out when the first flight of a given machine took place, and when it received an engine conversion? For the record, WAW and affliate Crescos in my list have the following serials: 003, 005, 015, 019, 020, 024, 025, 026, 030, 031 and 035. I'd love any images of these aircraft being built or at Hamilton around the time of testing. Also keen to see photos of LTP, the prototype Cresco. Much appreciation in advance  |

TMM is Taurmanui's 2nd cresco and is flown by Tony Wareham throughout the King Country region. These pictures were taken and supplied by Tony himself operating off a nice King Country strip. Nice bloke and very competent pilot, never seen him bounce once and he would be lucky to ever get a flatish strip ;D     Pictures should be credited to Tony Wareham |

LTR s/n 003, particularly in Rangitikei Air Services colours I don't have ZK-LTR in Rangitikei colours but I do have a couple of (not very good :  shots of ZK-LTS in Rangitikei colours, any help?  That'd be great! Interesting to see LTQ so early, very nice! I don't know what LTR wore, hence my keenness to see as many pics as possible. Have several of her as PDZ. |

Couple of Cresco shots from Taupo 2008.  You'd certainly notice that if it was in the circuit with you |

Does anyone have photos of ZK-TML c/n 030? Was intitially with Taumarunui Aerial Co-Op, went to Far North Air 11/1/06. Marcus, that's a turbine Fletcher as opposed to a Cresco  And I have a feeling VGP's machine is also a Walter or PT-6A Fletcher. |
