Howzit d - after the weightloss.

See you are in Randburg.

Lots of guys will take you for a flight for free - or a coke , but to really experience the flight you have to sit in the hot seat - therefore get an instructor for an introductory flight.

Dunno if Johnny at Kitty Hawk is able to fly again after his arm got hurt. Contact Matthew at Brakpan - oh 8 tree 423 2732 - the best option, or Rainier at Springs - oh 8 too 448 5496.

If you just want to sit in the back and relax, throw another hint or two. I'm even prepared to take you in the Sycamore, but only for a circuit - with 5 litres of fuel.

A word of warning : Gyro’s are addictive

Last year when Old No 7 kindly donated a windsock, he came through to the farm and took me up in his gyro and boy let me tell you it was great

The best thing for me was that we took off round about 10 and it was hot, Glen put the gyro in a kind of hover and you could count all the game even flying at low speed WOW

You won’t be sorry trying out a Gyro Big D.

[Big-D]

Thanks for the replies guys

Will start making some calls

I do an audit in Upington every August Eben - Have seen you guys fly over Bilo's and the river often, will give you a call next time, will be nice to meet

Tribal croc - I hear you. and perhaps it won't be me that's sorry for trying our Gyro's, but indeed my wife that will be sorry

What sparked the interest? Saturday's fly-inn at Aeroden, the planes were being moered all over the show in some bad weather except for the Sycamore which was stable as stable can be on landing and take off - Impressive

Gyros are addictive alright!!
If you ask me they should have stickers on them that say: 'Warning, this aircraft is dangerous and can result to your wallet becoming very light'!
You'll love gyros!

WHAT? The tyre kickers always tell me they are too heavy to fly!??

I think this is the first positive thing I have heard about a Sycamore in 4 years of owning one!

Brick shithouses are bound to be stable and MAN CAN THEY FLY! Ask my Magni mates.

PS, I now officially have more Magni hours than Sycamore hours! Best kept secret after Gyro's in general they are...

Low Level, you are a scholar and a gentleman sir - Many thanks for a wonderfull flight Saturday, was awesome - I was astounded at what these machines can do and how docile the flight characteristics are - I cannot lie, I want one!

Thanks again

Another convert! Yeeeehaaaaa

I call it the 'Gyro-smile'... that look on their faces when they get out after their first flight!
If it werent for their ears the smile would go right round their heads!!

Well done Low Level, the more converts the better for our sport!

Viva Gyro's and fly safe!
