The following is a list of what I believe to be the currently extant Austers in New Zealand - either flying, under restoration, in storage, or as a collection of components. If you are aware of any errors, ommissions, or corrections, please contact me with the information.
This list was last updated on October 5, 1999. In the 12 months from the previous update, 3 'ghosts' were eliminated from the list, and four aircraft have been added to the list. That brings the total Auster survivors known to me in New Zealand up to 51 aircraft.
