FS2004 DeHavilland Fox Moth ZK-AEK. A repaint for Dave Molyneaux's de Havilland DH83 Fox Moth (DE_HAVILLAND_DH83_FOX_MOTH_FS9.ZIP). K-AEK c/n 4033 was originally G-ACDD and used by The Prince of Wales in 1932. Sold to Belgium as OO-ENC in 1933. Overhauled by de Havillands and delivered to New Zealand in January 1935. Used by Air Travel NZ Ltd, Hokitika, the aircraft crashed on Franz Joseph Glacier in 1943. Repaired in 1947 and after several changes of ownership, the aircraft was exported to Fiji as VQ-FAT in 1957. Remains returned to New Zealand in 1990 and restored to flying condition as ZK-AEK. Sold in Canada as C-FYPM. Still airworthy. Repaint by Peter Watkins.
