Pilot Magazine October 1995 had a feature on the AX3 - it mentions Air Vice Marshall Merriman (one time head of ETPS) flying the machine and of the trip to Barcelona.

A photo of yellow coloured 59EE at Cranfield in 1990 can be seen at:

G-MYFI (Cyclone Airsports Ltd) had serial number: CA 002 - does anyone know what the UK production run was?

According to the Pilot Magazine article, Marc Mathot claimed to have sold 5000 AX3's before Ultralair's 1994 liquidation - including a float equipped fleet to the Mauritian police. (5000 ? a misprint?)
