Date Created5th November 2019CommentsGarry Wick: I think it was called a dragon fly . Round in the 50s .

Lawrence Boul: Had this debate before. DH89 was the Dragon Rapide, AKA Dominie in military service. The DH90 Dragonfly looked similar but was structurally quite different.

Phyllis Aberhart: I remember watching them at what then called Harewood airport in Christchurch. That would've been late 50's.

Phil Millar: I have flown from Hokitika to Haast and back,several times in one of these and from Christchurch to Haast when the All Blacks played the Springboks at Lancaster Park.

Kevin Voigt: Was a regular time table hoki Franz fox haast before rd opened.

Alister Creamer: First plane I flew in.
