4HP you are correct and if my memory serves me correctly, it was put together with 'beg, stolen or borrowed' parts and flown to FALA from Cape Town. The approval for this flight was a one off. SD was the captain and I am not sure of the other crew members. It has been parked at Lanseria ever since. Sad sight! There was interest in getting it going again during the Mozambique floods. This idea was scrubbed when the negative potentail was weighed up against the positives. I do not believe that we should hold our breaths and expect to see the machine flying.
