Hi All

Ok my dreams of flying a gyro to Gariep are slowly diminishing, some things dont always go quite as planned. So this is my last chance plea to anyone who can help out. If anyone has a gyro, knows of a gyro that I can beg, borrow, steal, hire, buy shares in, for use for the Gariep trip please let me know. I am very willing to more than compensate for the privilidge, I also have access to full comprehensive insurance for peace of mind.
I know some of you guys dont always particuarly like Ozzies, but we aren't all that bad
Seriously if anyone knows of anyone who might be able to help out, I would be forever greatful.

Cheers
Darren

Have you tried the 303 boys? They used to be the only woer woer H&F oukes around.

Else try Wagtail. he may know of a Gyro. I know he had plenty for sale...

Lastly
Check the for sale section or guys who have a gyro for sale (especially if it just standing). Gyro get together would be awesome advertising for someone wanting to sell a Gyro. Just a thought...

Hi RVker

Unfortunately the guys at 303Sqn no longer have a machine available.

I have been in contact with the guys at Wagtail and am just awaiting a reply.

And yes the last option certaily has merit, hopefully somewhere out there someone has something to offer.

OZgyro, ozziez with an interest in flying around our country are gladly tolerated You are hereby solemnly granted temporary "South African club membership" for as long as you need it

Shucks Darren,
I hope you come right mate.
It would really be good to have you there.

After all the suppport you have shown to SA gyro flying since landing here, it would be truly fitting for you to FLY in to this world record attempt.

Darren,i am totally convinced that should you not get a gyro in time it will not be because your an "ozzie".You are a very likeable fellow.I know Wagtail is very busy at the moment and the chances of them helping you is highly unlikely.

I have done some business with Grundy Television in Sydney and the guys from Ozzland are great . Ozzie! Ozzie! Ozzie! Hoi Hoi Hoi !!
So , maybe we can make a plan for you. My friend Vic Venter has a M16 standing in his hangar. He is going to Gariep with his 24. He has not advertised his M16 yet so maybe you talk to him and see if you can make a hire or buy or what ever deal. If nothing comes of it , at least you know where his hangar is and then you go and steal the blooming thing mate. But you gotta get to Gariep.
