A visit to Central South Island Helicopters' base at Herbert in Otago revealed their 2 AS350 helicopters in residence. One of these was 350BA ZK-HGO2 which has been with the company since 2012, being originally imported from Japan in 1982. The other was ZK-HDB which was depicted on our Wanaka blog last week.
Up the road at Oamaru a large proportion of the HeliVentures fleet was in residence including Schweizer 269C ZK-IED2 which was imported from Switzerland in late 2020.
Also added to their fleet in 2020 was MD520N ZK-IEN, this being originally imported from Canada in 2013.
