Yes there is a town of HAY on the hay plains as it happens (no pun intended)
the 19 prefix on the rego means it is registered as an ultralight and
denotes it as home or amature built, if home built kit then 51% or the
labour must be from the owner, or scratch built by the owner/designer. By
the rego number it was registered early june 2002 but it has been removed
---From the rego list
as 19-3750 was registered june 7 2002. Looks like it was dumped in from
about 100ft, Interestingly it was only registered for single person ops, no
seat or belts on LHS

Subject: Europa-List: Info on a past crash?
I found this unfortunate slideshow of the aftermath of a crash on youtube.
Anyone have any info on it? The registration on the plane is "19-3749"
(odd) and the video's tag's elude to Australia sometime in 2007 at a "Hay"
airfield.
A quick search through the various accident investigation branches didn't
turn up anything.
It's a conventional-gear mod-ed Europa with a rotax turning a warp-drive.
It looks survivable (I hope), but serious.

Anyone?
On a more pleasant note, it's great to see more recently added youtube
Europa clips showing up - congrats on G-CHOX, I remember following their
website progress many a month ago.
Regards,
Pete
