Welcome Adrian.

 

You will find lots of helpful people of a like mind around these forums.

 

I don't know much about gyros, as I fly a trike, but I'm sure you will connect with some other gyro pilots real soon.

 

Enjoy the discussions.

Adrian perhaps you could get another Meningie man to join the forum. I refer to Ron the Savannah owner. Look him up.

[adrian_clince]

they are a good aeroplane , trouble is there are manu planes out there ,what i have learnt is that anything that flys over 100 kts cost $100,000 unless you can find a good second hand one...

Adrian seeing that Ron can speak "freely" and has a wealth of experience, he could well contribute much to the forum. The aircraft in my avatar is the NZ Furio. A dream aircraft for GA only, unfortunately. My Lightning is all but finished, sadly though it will be going up for sale due to some major health challenges which I have since a triple bypass in April. The aircraft is currently at Kingston where the final touches will be done.

sorry to hear that galpin- sometimes the simplest things can stop us doing what we love..

 

 

[adrian_clince]

that was the flyin . in temora??

 

 

[adrian_clince]

i know the lightening very well, it was a favourit of mine, for if one was to purchase a new aircraft that would be a choice that red and white one i know well, i was in temora this year, flew from meningie to temora in one set in a moonie j200 .. think thats what its called if you see in , it was the yellow plane around the back. but i took a few photos of that paticuler plane.

 

 

[adrian_clince]

that , wil be the go for next year, but i must say the amount of locus that was there was crazy, the best joke i heard was, someone was complaining about the amount of locus, and someone turned around and said. well it is a flyin ... to have been funny , but yet terribly honest.
