Western Cape GYRONUTS/ PILOTS / STUDENTS ETC

Postby Jabbanaught » Tue Aug 11, 2009 8:42 am

Hi Guys

As i have just started with this GYRO enjoyment , Part of my reason for buying the gyro and learning to fly is that i thought that Gyro guys are more sociable .

I want to start (maybe one exist ) a list of all Gyro Pilots and owners , and then guys busy with training .

The reason for this would be to do Fly Aways together , Or just sociable .

If you are interested please mail me the following .

Name :

Machine :

Reg :

Based :

Tel :

Email Address :

I might not be a gyro pilot as yet , but i can organise things vhpy

Peterb

No offence taken.

It was not meant as being sarcastic, I was serious.

I am on the Sagpa comittee but we need a national events coordinator.

Paul would do a great job.

Hi Guys

I never intended stepping on anybodies toes , And surely do not want to take away any function of SAGPA .

The intention was merely to get a list of Gyro fans in the Western Cape , So that if a weekend away or fly-inns are coming up we could inform everybody .

Further than that if new products are coming onto the market or if the AP's are coming down to the cape .

I might be wrong , But its nice to belong to a group of people that have the same interest .

I have had some response , And if i need to compile a list for SAGPA i will do it .

Looking forward to hear from everybody .

Thanks to Len (jetranger ) , Louis van Wyk and the guys that replied .

I currently have a list of 30 Gyros in our area , Some not with all the details , but i am working on it getting a full list .

My idea is the following .

I want to have a Breakfast Run for Gyros so that we can meet or meet again and chat about our wonderfull aircraft .

Then looking a bit further .

What do you guys say that we have a mass arrival at the Overberg Airshow with gyro's . Imagine if 27 or so gyro's arrive in a gaggle at the Airshow , i think that would be something .

Will keep you guys up to date .

O yes and that to the two guys from FAKT for the details i will add you to our mailing list .

Regards

Count me in! Would love to be part of a big gaggle.

Dont forget the formation (gaggle)-flying pre-flight-briefing though. We don't want to make it a 'first' with gyro's taking each other out!

I am all for it provided everyone understands who's wing-man they are for the duration of the flight.

Would be awesome Paul

Well done. Bou die gees!
