Topic: Peter Lewis has a renowned collection of photographs and data on New Zealand aircraft that he has keenly shared for many years on the Wings Over New Zealand Aviation Forum. In this interview we hear how he first became interested in aviation as a child, and also in photography.
Peter also talks about the early preservation scene and his involvement in solving a few mysteries surrounding the Zero at Auckland War Memorial Museum. Peter is also a recreational pilot, and he imparts with us a lot of his wisdom about the current New Zealand aviation scene.
