for cancellation on 15-11-93 to become DQ-FIB for Vanua Air Charters. I then have it as returning to NZ on 24-10-1994, still with Great Barrier but now re-registered as ZK-JEI from 04-09-1995. Some six local operators later it was with JW & E I Lyver from 06-09-1999. How it got in its present state I know not; but it appears to be badly damaged underneath, as if it had a wheels up or similar. The student was landing the aircraft. Following touchdown, poor braking action was experienced due to the wet grass surface and the aircraft over ran the runway into a ditch. A slight tailwind was noted after the landing. Well, guys: your directions were perfect - I found the aerodrome easily today. Except... it's no longer "disused". In fact, it's going thru a major tart-up as a new skydiving operation. All the rubbish, overgrowth etc has been cleared away...and the Piper's disappeared too. So your photo is probably the only one in existence! Thanx for your help nonetheless.
