Howzit and welcome Baz.

Please share some of your views on the difference between the gyros you fly. Would like to hear first hand experienced pilot's view. Lot of guys in SA interested in cheaper gyros.

Pics and price in Aus of the hightail and the MT-03 (nice gyro). :wink:

P.S. Excuse my ignorance, what is a drifterpod :oops:

P.P.S Share some pics of your valley.

Thanks for the warm welcome fellas, I'll try to add some more pics and stories.

A drifter pod is a nose pod from a high wing drifter fw.
The 582 I fly I built myself from scratch, it's a fast machine for a 582, 100 mph. very comfy rally car seat.

But I do have to admit the MT is the most stable gyro I have ever flown, pitty the seating is so crap, I need a cushion.

Hey there Baz... :D

What a great looking patch. Don't know if you're into rugby at all but it's Super 14 time. May the best team win.

Just wanted to say hi, and welcome to the forum. Here's wishing you blue skies and safe flying

Welcome to the hangar (^^)
