Never caught on but would it be a viable proposition to maybe re-furb some ex Army airframes for civil use?
Setting aside the fact that there's a very limited market for a rehashed small-ship-capable anti-tank midget hauler, any viable remains of the Lynx fleet have been incorporated into the Lynx 10 programme by now. What's left have been converted into paintball targets and camper-vans.
