correct give the man a cigar

in fact no gazelles were ever made in hungary halfm was the loan/training heli from aerospat to the yugos police while they were starting their own production line it then came back to the uk where it was on the uk reg for 20 plus years one of its uk owners was the test pilot school [ at cranfield ?] i did think it was a westland machine but if you say its aerospat i wouldnt argue

ive had several ex uk military gazelles on permit the permit restrictions are not too onerous for private use but improvements would be better

the ex uk mil gazelle has found its way onto a quite few registers on permits some i know about are usa,ukraine,southafrica,australia,new zealand,and they also reside on the uk g reg in a few countrys germany ,spain,france,holland in fact there are possibly more ex uk gazelles flying elsewhere than there is in the uk

thats why there is not very many for sale in the uk at the moment i know only of 2 actively for sale in the uk and 1 in the states complete with its glass cockpit

but all are permit or experimental i dont know of one that has a full cof a but eric you seem very knowelgeable may be you could find one, then we could get a copy of the type data cert used and use EASA to register it in the uk
