More Xenons to South Africa

[Steve_UK]

Hi

Celier Aviation recently delivered two new build Xenon 2 gyrocopters to South Africa.

The Xenon is popular in South Africa with at least 7 examples registered locally. The latest examples are both Xenon 2 RST models,

Wonder what the wordwide total is?

Hi

Celier mentioned "over 120" a couple of month back with more being added each month.

I am a modern day aviation historian with a great interest in all types of aircraft built in Poland - hence my interest in the Xenon.

I am trying to compile a fleet listing for this type - I've identified approx 40 examples with both construction number and the local registration ( eg CAI 02871S is American N402ED ), plus another 30 or so local registrations for which I do not have construction numbers ( eg German D-MTSR, D-MSXT c/n unknown ).

I'd welcome any help from owners please - problem areas at the moment are examples in Germany and Australia.

All help welcomed - thank you.
