I was driving through Otorohanga this morning, heading towards Te Kuiti, when much to my surprise three large trucks went past in the opposite direction, each with a Westland Wessex helicopter sitting on the back! They were all very dirty looking, but seemed to be intact from the very brief look I got of them, all painted dark green, complete with the Union Flag painted under the nose.
Does anyone know where these came from, or are heading too? I've never seen one before, but if I recall correctly there were a few in NZ that were being used for logging a few years back.

They (and 2 more) are on the way to Classic Flyers at Tauranga - see the Classic Flyers thread.
