Jos, many thanks for your valuable up-to-date contributions to this thread!

[Helipixman]

Thanks Jos

How do you manage to find out about the new South African registrations ? The official site still down ?

Glad to see N1433W new owner is now also official, it had been noted a while ago as a potential change.

[Rotorspot]

I have my contacts (or spies, whatever you want to name them).

Doe anyone know the fate of these aircraft?

Cancelled from the Russian aircraft register, somewhere between 25-Feb-2021 and 30-Mar-2021:

- RA-05710 SA341G, c/n 055; did become TL-WJU
- RA-1347G SA341G, c/n 087

Does anyone know the fate of the latter one?

[md600driver]

Surely they must be 341H not 341G as those serial numbers are Yugo and they didn’t make any 341G

[Savoia]

Yes, 'H' models.

087 has been up for sale on the GazMart for a while: http://www.aviafora.com/forums/forum...1284#post11284

[Rotorspot]

They definitely were 341H models while still in military service. But many of those ended up on civil registers with the type being mentioned as 341G models.

I thought the Gazelle Squadron had moved out of Bourne Park ?

[Savoia]

That would be interesting to know, keep us posted please! 👍
