A light helicopter of Dutch design, the Kolibrie was powered by rotor tip-mounted Kromhout ramjets. About ten H-3s were built for agricultural use. This is the prototype H-3, first flown in May 1956. Its H-2 predecessor, PH-NFT, is suspended from the ceiling. This photo is copyright © Peter de Jong, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
