New Aero AT-3 aircraft in the UK

Aero recently delivered one new build AT-3 R100 c/n AT3-055 to the UK from their factory at Mielec in Poland.

This light aircraft was registered in the UK on 27th September 2010 as G-SKAZ.

Another recent AT-3 aircraft to be registered in the UK is G-RDFX - this example is a factory supplied kit and has been registered with the PFA c/n 327-14295 - it was registered on 8th July 2010 - I suspect that this kit *might be* factory c/n AT3-009 but would welcome confirmation please.
