ZK-AWP first arrived in New Zealand in 1945 for the RNZAF. IN 1952 it became ZK-AWP. -AWP has served in Samoa (as 5W-FAI) and Tonga (as A3-AWP). Air Chathams bought it in 2009 but it was 2013 before it returned to New Zealand. This photo is copyright © Ian McDonell, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
