Monty, I can personally vouch for this aircraft, having flown it in the U.S. for the last few months(got home last week). It is being used at a skdiving centre in Utah (Salt Lake Skydiving, locally known as the 'Bonneville Bouncers'!) and is a popular aircraft for formation jumps as it can lift 10 skydivers. The jumpers were always taking the piss, saying "It must take a long time to wind up the rubber band in this one"
We also did an unusual charter, with the seats out, flying three green Anacondas from Ecuador to a private zoo in Orlando, Florida.
Cheers, Sailing.
