Have you tried the PFA or the BMAA?

Only one has been completed in the UK - G-BDWE (after its builder Dennis W Evernden - now sadly passed away). Dennis knocked it up in 22 1/2 years!

The test flying was done by Carl Tyers at Spanhoe and Peter Grist at Sibson in the 90s. Francis Donaldson of PFA Engineering also flew it so as rod1 says, contacting the PFA would be a good starting point.

The aircraft has changed hands a few times since now, according to our CAA G-INFO:

PS I see your location is in Texas, the PFA (Popular Flying Association) are at:

Or Possibly the EAA might be a better bet if you're in the USA http://www.eaa.org/

Would that be the one that Kingy bought for £1500 on Ebay?

Might be worth a PM in his direction.

That is the one, somewhere I've got some photos of it but as yet I haven't found them - I was going to forward them to Kingy but failed miserably!
