Homebuilt Helicopters of NZ - Mini 500Ks Addendum - ZK-HOZ and Others

Back in October 2022 I posted about our Revolution Mini 500K homebuilt helicopters of which we have had 8 registered.  You can see that post HERE

In that post I noted that we did not have a photo of ZK-HOZ2.  Well, now we do:

ZK-HOZ2 (c/n 0034)was registered to Colin F Hopkins of Papatoetoe on 8/5/96 and it is photo'd above at Ardmore.  It was withdrawn as Cancelled on 8/6/01.  Does anyone know why?

We also mentioned another Mini 500K that was short lived in the Motu area and that we didn't have a photo of which is ZK-HEW2 As it is the last Mini 500K we don't have a photo of, can anyone provide a photo?  Last Call!

The reason why we only need one more photo of Mini 500Ks in New Zealand (ZK-HEW2 as above) is because Mini 500K  ZK-HPN3 is still untouched in its kit in Christchurch, although it registration is still current.
