New Zealand's Massey University has ordered 12 single-engined Diamond DA40s and two twin-engined DA42L360s in a $5 million deal to replace a fleet of Piper Warriors and Senecas. Massey is New Zealand's only university with an aviation school. Senior instructors will undergo training at Diamond Aircraft's factory in Ontario, Canada, over the next three months. Four aircraft are due for delivery by the end of May, with the rest of the fleet following by the end of this year.
