The second of two PL-11s, this one was sometimes known as the Waitomo Airtruck. Designed by Italian-Australian Luigi Pellarini, it used T-6 Harvard components including the R-1340 engine and canopy. Both crashed, -CKE on March 1, 1967 at Maungakaramea. A lack of available T-6 parts saw Pellarini redesign it as a smaller aircraft, the PL-12, which went into series production in Australia as the Transavia Airtruk. Bob Kerr photo.
