Nationwide poppy flight bound for South Canterbury

Keith Pickford will land at Rangitata Island in his Auster MK 5 on Tuesday afternoon and the following day Russell Brodie flies his Tiger Moth from Rangitata to Timaru’s Richard Pearse Airport. At each stopover people have been encouraged to knit poppies as well as stars representing the Starship Foundation, which can be attached to artworks that are being carried around the country.

It only took hour an hour for each one.” The poppies will be handed over when Brodie’s Tiger Moth touches down.

Not that he skimped on safety. “Everything else can be nasty arse crap,” he tells Johnson, but the parts that allow him to stop and steer it, “those have to be top-notch”.
