Description

This photograph is from the Manawatū District Aero Club archives. The Manawatū Aero Club was established following a public meeting in November 1928, with the objective of promoting aviation in the district. In September 1937, they became the Middle Districts Aero Club after merging with the struggling Feilding Aero Club. The organization changed its name to the Manawatū District Aero Club in late 1983. In May 2016, the MDAC merged with the Manawatū Microlight Club, with the new incorporated society known as the Manawatū Aviation Club.
