Background note: This model is the origin of the outstanding line of Helicom and Commuter helicopters that lead to the production of the Baby Belle and Safari helicopters. Created by famed heliopter designer Harold "Pop" Emigh, it has always been considered among the finest experimental aircraft available (Mr. Emigh actually flew this Commuter, Jr. and has endorsed the log books; so did the second owner of the line, Robert Dart).
