Does this exist?

Hi all

Sorry if this is an old one, but I have searched the forum and can't find a reference to this.

The question is - is this real?

Vrtulník Wasp a Breeze - JD-HELICOPTER - ultralight vrtulníky WASP a BREEZE

JD-HELICOPTER

If so, does anyone know if there are any sites in English that could help me learn a bit more about it (I will of course try a translation program). Clicking the UK flag on the first link seems to take me through to the second link.

Cheers!

They state availability as of 6/6/2010!

Perhaps send them an email asking the status of the project.

If you go to the top of the page click on the British flag and it will give some English translation.

eg:
After long developmental work JD-HELICOPTER comes to the market with a progressively solved one-man ultra-light helicopter, driven by four-stroke engine with power of 80 hp, good self-rotating properties and generally silent and cultivated operation.

Does not give much more detail that I could find. Sure looks like a short tail boom . I wonder if anything is actually flying or if it is just another "potential" concept.

Looks like they are trying to mimic the Mosquito ultralight which is pretty much well proven now.
