Helio U-5A Twin Courier: Looks & Function.

This jolly thing was a twin-engined version of the ultra-elegant Courier. It was designed to improve the already amazing performances of the Courier, a thing it did in spades, Thanks to its wing mounted enginesm this contraption has better payload, visibility, improved foreign object damage (FOD) prevention, better STOL qualities. But, boy, wasn’t she funny looking?
Regretably -or not- the company ran into financial problems and only a few were ever built.
