She landed here in South Africa about a year ago. Last I heard of her she was grounded due to some problems with the engines she used and the manufacturer's problem with legal matters if they failed. Where can I get more info on her?

Vic,

Their web page is here: http://www.Vimy.co.uk/, and there was an article in a recent issue of Kitplanes.

Hope this helps,
