Dietmar Winzker went solo in a Magni M16 at Morningstar yesterday! =D* =D* =D*
The wind (South Easterly) was 15kt gusting 30 and I was still comfortable to send him solo. (As jy kan, KAN jy!)

He has been flying for more than 40 years and recently discovered the wonders of Gyro's. Needless to say he took to it like a duck to water and through hard work and commitment mastered the concept quickly. His vast experience and total obsession with Gyro's will make him a huge asset to our sport.

Welcome Dietmar and well done again!
(^^)
