Hello

As a collector of DeHavilland DH.114 Heron photos I'm looking desperately for a photo/picture/scan of ZK-BEQ.

DH.114 1B c/n 14033 ZK-BBO with NAC was reregistered in 12.53
for a royal tour with Queen Elizabeth II. She traveled from Rotorua to Gisborne in January 1954.

I'm also looking for a photo/picture/scan of ZK-BBO.

Photo of ZK-BEQ follows.
I've never seen a pic of ZK-BBO - there may be one out there somewhere, but it was only current for about a month before the PC police realised that 'BO was not a suitable registration for Royal Transport and the aircraft was re-registered as ZK-BEQ.

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