The Avro Prefect was a development of the earlier Tutor with a third cockpit, to which could be fitted a Scarff ring for gunnery practice. This aircraft was one of four purchased by the RNZAF in 1935 and it served with 1FTS. After the war it was sold and became ZK-APC in 1948. It was purchased by the RNZAF Museum in 1980 and restored at Ohakea where it made its first flight on 8 July 1985. After several years flying an engine problem grounded it and it was put on static display at Wigram.

This aircraft was built to an order from Virgin Blue and first flew on 20 Feb 2004. It was registered VH-VOR on 17 March that year. After just over a year and a half it was transferred to VB subsidiary Pacific Blue and re-registered ZK-PBF on 17 Oct 2005.

Christchurch Tower is built on to the roof of the domestic terminal - one of the few terminals to still have a viewing deck. On a clear day, the Controllers have a lovely view of snow-capped mountains in distance. Nice!

By the time I took this photo in 2008, Wigram Tower was closed but the aerodrome itself, once home to the RNZAF's Central Flying School, was still active. Unfortunately the aerodrome closed to all aircraft movements the following year.
