I have come across the photograph below of a Heron 1 but the only marks on it are EJM. It is possible to see G- very faintly in front of the EJM.
Has anyone any idea which particular Heron this was? I have not been able to discover any serial or owner which ties in with EJM.

Now you mention it guys that does ring a bell. Thanks for clearing that one up – it’s appreciated. 🙂

It is quite common in NZ and perfectly legal to only display the last three letters of the serial. They must not fly outside NZ like that I understand, although I have seen a NZ aircraft without the country code part in Oz.

They like doing that in New Zealand for some reason.

To add to that,
c/n 14005 new as LN-SUD then to G-AOZN then 9L-LAL then ZK-EJM. The aircraft was seriously damaged while landing at Ardmore 09/05/77 and written of. Cant explain why it’s not showing the full reg though – thats if it is this aircraft?

You are right, David. I thought of NZ but the book I checked with was published before it became ZK-EJM. What a twit!!!
Many thanks,

Typical in the 15 minutes it takes me to locate my lists somebody else posts what I find. 😀
