EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Cessna 172E ZK-CGB, a beloved aircraft from the Nelson Aero Club's fleet, circa 1970. The Cessna 172E, with manufacturing serial number (MSN) [redacted], is a classic example of the iconic Cessna 172 Skyhawk series. The Nelson Aero Club, located in Nelson, New Zealand, was an integral part of the local aviation community during the late 1960s and 1970s. This image captures the essence of the era, with the Cessna 172E's sleek design and vibrant colors reflecting the spirit of adventure and exploration that defined the time. The Cessna 172E was a popular choice for private pilots and flying clubs due to its versatility and reliability. With its powerful Continental O-320 engine, fixed tricycle landing gear, and roomy cabin, it offered an unparalleled flying experience for those seeking to soar above the picturesque landscapes of New Zealand. This photograph, part of The Peter Butt Aviation Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, serves as a nostalgic reminder of a bygone era in aviation history. It invites us to imagine the thrill of taking off from the Nelson Aero Club's runway, the sensation of weightlessness as we ascend into the sky, and the breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside that awaited pilots and their passengers during that era.
