Hi
I've been told that Calidus ZU-RHF is currently in the UK - nice to see but it's a long way from home.
Seen at Wellsbourne near Stratford Upon Avon last weekend.
Anybody know if it's here for a tour or has it been sold on to the UK ?
Cheers
Steve

I wonder if this Calidus has ever been to South Africa ?
I've found photos of it on the WWW in Spain in 12.11, and in Romania in 2013
Registered in 10.11 to an investment company.
Anybody seen this machine ( it's grey ) on the ramp/in a hanger in RSA ?

I don't think it has ever been to South Africa, nor was the photo taken in South Africa.
I think it belongs to a guy, can't remember his name, that stays for six months in Europe and six months in SA. It was suppose to come to SA, hence the registration numbers, but the owner decided to keep it in Europe.
I saw this gyro in Thomas Kiggen's flight school hanger next to the Autogyro factory in Hildesheim in 2012.
