Igor Sikorsky once said something to the effect that all helicopter
designers should fly their own designs. That way we could get rid of bad
designers. I have not got any first hand info on the subject site. I have
been to numerous fly-ins where Ultrasport, Rotorway, Safari, and Mini-500s
and a single Angel have flown. At the same fly-ins I've seen some of the
other "Ultralites" such as a G-1, A/W and a few others, but I've never seen
any of the "Ultralites" fly.. I've seen pictures purporting to be ships in
the air, but I've never seen one in the air.
BTW I think that the accident rate for the R-22 "certified" helicopter ain't
too great.
