No doubt about that.

We are waiting for the red gyro that's being modified for training, at the moment ZU-TMA is being used.

Re: Starting with training

It is amazing how lekker it is to put misconceptions aside. It's a bummer to be up there and
there is this little thing nagging in the background.

Thank you for all the input.

Someone said to me, can't remember who "never abort take off after lift off" in a gyro, how much truth is in that?

I'm curious. Can you remember what their reasoning was ?
Apparently rotor blade flap.

Re: Gyro bee

Hi Hennie1

It seems like a lekker little gyro to fly around the house, it would be interesting to know if there is any around.

Re: Starting with training

Thank you for the replies T Bird you got me to think of all the little stupid things that has happened to me with the trike, I agree with you, in conclusion no need to push the limits.

Re: Starting with training

The reason I'm asking, I have a runway here where I stay, 220m long with an electric fence at the end of it now which doesn't bother with the trike. Fortunatly Aviators Paradise is just over the mountain fro...
