Classic WACO in NZ

[aeromuzz]

I was having a skim through the CAA Register amendments the other day and noticed an interesting new registry entry:

UPF Waco UPF-7 5593 1202 Aeroplane Initial registration Flying Circus Limited N174M

Does anyone know anything about this?


Also, a little off topic, but I also noticed that Dominie ZK-AKU is now registered with W. Denholm. Is this aircraft still intended to head overseas?

Yes Jay McIntyre posted on Facebook a while back that this Waco is coming to NZ, it looks superb. What a neat gathering of classic biplanes we could have in New Zealand soon with the soon to be five Wacos, all the Stearmans including Russel Jenkins' stunning recently flown example, all the Staggerwings coming along at Wanaka, and of course the various de Havilland classics too. I'd love to see a fly-in with these sorts of aircraft on a nice grass airfield like Rangitata Island.

Yes the Dominie is still heading to the USA as far as I know.
