Hey Len dont oppolgise, me and Varkis we are one.
If it will make you feel any better I still think that the Sycamore is a great gyro (two seater) and yours is very good looking, Still think all gyros are over priced and what amazes me is the funny people that are attracted to flying Gyors Soft hearted and no sense of humor ( wanabe astonauts shame) Dont worry you dont fit that discription.
Think I must go and look on AVCom for some brave hearted pilots.

I would have to say Brian has lost this round. Am not so sure his aeries that have wings that fold back, could taxi over bumpy roads in that state.

Brian, your fixed aeries with fold up wings are the weakest link. Goodbye.
Trying to taxi, and having wings on either side, is as useful as a comb is for a bald guy, waste of time. Sorry...That's why gyro's are simply the best!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That gyro looks so awesome in the bush! Len, your gyro does look stunning in your photo. Brian, if you had to take your wings off, your aeries would look like a chicken with a clipped wing! Now that is just ugly. Am trying to lower my standards here, and get into this rough and tough, hard hearted, with a sense of humour mode. How am I doing? This is going to take some practice.

You see didnt take long to get some life back into this topic, But we have messed things up a bit for the Ela V Magni guys so you poor souls can have your little debate back ( my gyro flys at 80, my gyro lands in 0 mts,my gyro is made of plastic etc etc etc)
Thinking of starting a new topic The Stirrer Verses All the Gyro 0000's
FO hope you dont chicken out or I will put Eggbeater onto you.
Look out for the new topic.

Hi JR

To be quite honest I am not quite sure what a GYOR is but assume, from Brian's post, that it is an aircraft flown by soft hearted, humourless, non-AVCOM type astronaut wannabees.

If I have to hazzard a guess though I think it is some ralatively inexpensive and fuel efficient rotorcraft flown originally flown in the east block (see: www.gyor.hu ) and if this attaches then here is a picture of one.
