Re: Gyro Hard Landing - Morningstar

This could not have been in the Sycamore. They are much stronger than that so must have been in one of your other fancy soft planes vhpy vhpy

Re: GYRO FUNDING

No Eben, sorry to have to inform you that all the Banks have stopped funding ZU registration numbers. So if I am wrong please come back to me, but I have phoned them and that is the answer I received.

Re: Trike - Air Creation - For Sale

I flew one of these years ago, loved it. This plane is beautiful. Anyone in the market for a Microlight, you buy this plane right now and you do not negotiate with this guy. Just now her realises his mistake and sell at what it is worth. This is a well designed Microlight and not cheap overseas. Wha...

GYRO FUNDING

I would appreciate some feedback from the Gyronauts. I want to buy myself a Gyro again, and is really battling with funding. All the banks have now moved away from Funding ZU registrations at all. So being a business owner the asset funding is normally the most Tax effective finance and would be my ...

Re: NIC PRINSLOO

To all on the forum, this is why it is so important to have a platform like this. And it is not that I am new to Gyro, I had a Sycamore that I flew very may happy hours on, must say with the "illegal" 33 feet rotor and absolutely loved it. T Bird you should become an agent. I would much rather pay y...

NIC PRINSLOO

Can someone please advise me. I am in the market to buy a Gyro and contacted Nic Prinsloo as I saw him advertising as agent. I was interested in a Gyro that he had advertised. I paid him a R20 000 holding deposit, and on further investigation I found that the Gyro was basically a rebuild. So I decid...

Re: MT 05 Accident Witbank

True, and I am obviously not expert enough to start getting in an argument here. It just seems to me that the bigger rotor is far more forgiving than the short rotors, but obviously that can only be verified by switching rotors which is not something anyone will do on their aircraft, it would have b...

Re: MT 05 Accident Witbank

I am reading this conversation with great interest. The one question in my mind is I am not so sure that Gyro's are fitted with the correct rotors. It seems to me that the flavour of the month is to have the rotor as short as possible. When I am buying my next Gyro I would certainly look at the long...
