Photo Comment

The first VH-PKD was a Cessna 180H sold in New Zealand in 1995. The second -PKD was this 182D. It is ex VH-RHQ reregistered in 1995. It was given a tailwheel undercarriage conversion back in the 1970s and for a while at least retained the swept fin of the D Model 182. It now has the 180 style straight fin and looks at first glance just like the original -PKD.
