BENNETT (WAITOMO) PL-11 AIRTRUCK

"To the editor of wikipedia, could we have a sub-section to General Aircraft:, called Agricultural please.

My interest in the PL-11 Airtruck, is that i was employed as a draughtsman (u/t) on the second prodution prototype ZK-CKE,and it was my first job,on leaving high school. I STARTED AT 16YRS IN DEC 1963, and left in May 1965 to contuine training in the RNZAF.

ZK-CKE crashed in to some trees on 1 March 1967,while taking off on a topdressing mission, the pilot was Dick Tatham.

Dear Richard Brough,

Anyone reading Wikipedia can also be an editor of it.

There is an agricultural aircraft section, which I have linked this article to.

Sounds like you would be superbly qualified to expand the article about this aircraft. If you are willing, have a think about what you want to write, read the pages about writing, hit edit and go for it, :-) Winstonwolfe 02:43, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

There's a photo on line at [1], but I wouldn't have the first clue about copyright. I could photograph a model of it for Wikipedia, (there is a model at MoTaT). I believe both original machines were lost in crashes. Winstonwolfe 22:16, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. Odd looking. Paul Beardsell 22:54, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
