EM-11C Orka - deal with China

In December 2011 Marganski and Myslowski ( M and M) announced that an investment agreement had been reached with a consortium of aviation companies from China for a general aviation partnership. M and M have been seeking investment to facilitate serial production of the four seat twin engined Orka.

The deal will see EM-11C Orka aircraft built at the factory in Bielsko-Biala, Poland being sold to China  - the Orka aircraft will operate in the Hainan region of China.  Support in China will be provided by the China International General Aviation Industry Group ( CIGA ) and China Aviation Pioneer Technology Ltd.

 
The EM-11C Orka was granted a EASA Type Certificate in April 2011 and offers a range of 1,700 km.

The Chinese consortium will visit Bielsko-Biala in early 2012 for further talks including the proposal to build the EM-11C Orka in China.

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.
