So, I'm interested in building a kit helicopter, but many of the options that were previously available, don't seem to be around any more. I like the newer Rotorway, but they are no longer in business. I like the Safari 500 or even the 400, but after talking to someone on the phone at their business number, they have nothing built and aren't sure when anything might even be available. I saw the Aerokopter Ak1-3 at Airventure this year, but after speaking with the man about their 51% E-AB option, I didn't walk away with the feeling that anything would be available to buy any time soon there either. Other than buying someone else's project and not knowing what their build standards are or were, or if the parts I'm unable to fabricate are even all there or available, what are some current options in building a 2 person personal helicopter? Are there even any out there?
