G-UNNS is showing as a potential change of ownership, dated 30th April 2024, wonder who it will be ?
G-CLGO is also showing as a potential owner change !

[Savoia]

Grazie Paolo! 👍 G-UNNS change in ownership announced last week in post #6328. I haven't specifically asked the owner if he would mind his name being mentioned, I'm sure he wouldn't by the way. Anyway his initials are 'AF' and he's a member of the Bell 206 Group.

Lovely shots Zis, grazie! 👍

N341VH, do you know if this was 1041 or 1136 please?

[Zishelix]

Both 1041 & 1136 were N341VH, but on the specific photo is #1136 since that one was Vought Helicopter Inc's demo machine.

[Savoia]

Ah, okay .. grazie mille!
