Mk.1, are you able to provide more info on this?
Last I've seen is information on the RVUK site regarding negotiations with the PFA. From what I'd read there, those had stalled (Ha!) due to, IIRC, PFA requirements for load testing of the tailplane and perhaps other components, which Van's weren't willing to go to the expense of (no real surprise!). Also UK spin testing. There was some discussion about some UK builders supporting the project, though - but this was around 2004.
Very interested to hear what's been happening recently.
