Cotswold Presents Guimbal Cabri G2
Cotswold Helicopter Centre (Stand 905) is introducing a new helicopter at Helitech based on the Cabri G2. Bruno Guimbal, formerly the engineering director at Eurocopter, designed the "Guimbal Cabri G2." He will be present at the company's stand to answer questions and show people around the helicopter. Cabri recently appointed Cotswold Helicopter Centre as exclusive agents to sell the G2 in the UK market. The Helitech exhibition will mark the first time in Great Britain that the Cabri helicopter is on display for the potential operators to "see it in the flesh."

Very interesting! Dare we hope for a 4 seater? Now that would be nice!

Flying Dutchy - you don't state where your cut/paste comes from, but Cotswold are displaying a genuine, straight-from-the-factory Cabri G2. Nothing "based on a Cabri G2" but a REAL one. The article you quote has got it wrong.

This one to be precise....

Isn't that just crying out for a turbine conversion?

It's not only pretty, but also a lot of fun to fly. I'd like to see a turbine 5-seater... oh wait... EC makes that one. :)
