Will put it down in my diary. What's the setup, is it a fly-inn over two days, with camping etc?

Well you're gonna need a co-pilot if she doesn't want to come! It can be a very long (and free) demo flight! :lol:
A car and a house are a small price to pay for my company! :lol:

Gyro's are not well known in our area and there are a lot of misconceptions and fears about these machines. We would therefore welcome it if you can join us in numbers so that we can get more exposure to this type of flying, and of course to enjoy the weekend with you.

PS Just to avoid any confusion - the date is March 2010; not 2009 :) Jabi430, could you kindly edit it for us?

Regards
