A Chopper is Born
Discussion
It sounds like a good idea but the cost of a PPL(H) licence is high! Fuel is absurd and maintenance has to be perfect. This is what you want. www.moller.com (You have to be super rich though!)
"All interesting stuff. Does anyone know if that series (E-type & Helicopter) is available on video / cd?"
Definitely available - seen them advertised after the programmes. Haven't got any details but you could start with www.discoverychannel.com

Evans didn't get to keep the copter. I did a lookup on the reg and it's down to the owner of i2i, the production company. I understand it's up for sale. Not sure if he got to keep any of the toys. OK if you run the production company. Build keeping the cars for yourself into the budget and hey presto, Discovery channel buys you a Cobra replica with a massive Yank V8, a restored Mk1.5 E-Type 3.8 (or was it a 4.2) drophead a Europa aircraft and a helicopter, oh and a racing westfield now...!

He also didn't get to keep the other stuff - the Cobra was given away in an FHM competition, and the E-Type was sold in the classifieds. For a lot less than the project cost.
