HR200

The HR200 was indeed certificated originally for aeros but this was subsequently withdrawn due, I believe, to spin recovery concerns, hence its re-emergence some years later (as the 2160?) with a significantly increased fin, rudder and added ventral fin.

We had an HR200 on the fleet at Rochester back in the late 70's early 80's and used to turn it upside down regularly. A great machine until it was involved in a weather related accident.

It snowed heavily overnight and the hangar collapsed on it....

Nice little aircraft and not that dear to buy these days.
