Would appreciate any contact information for gyroplane training (and
rating) in the San Francisco Bay Area. I live in San Francisco and
mostly fly out of Palo Alto.

I've found some references online to West Coast Gyroplane Service at
Nut Tree Airport (Vacaville).

There used to be an out, called Pegasus Helicopters, at Palo Alto, which
had an Umbaugh gyroplane. It was not really a pleasant craft to fly, as
you could not trim it.
