I've heard talk of new rules in '07 which will affect the lightweight gyro's which currently require no license. Can anyone comment on this? I absolutely will get gyro traing before I fly (I'm also a motorcyclist who learned to ride in 1978 by making two circles around the dealer's parking lot on...

A newbie question, no doubt, but I need to know. This is a quote from a GyroBee builder's site: «There is some variation in the labeling of standard 3/16 aircraft washers. Primarily, I have labeled them an AN960-316 but you will also find them labeled AN960-10 (in the LEAF catalog, for...

On another forum, the question has been raised as to why the pilot in a heli usually sits on the right (excepting tandem cockpit arrangements, obviously!), when in a fixed wing aircraft the PIC sits on the left. Does anyone here know the definitive answer? In fact, IS there a definitive answer, or...

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me with regard to the following... I am planning to build a radio controlled scale helicopter and I'm looking for info on navigation and anti-collision lights; position, colour, flash rates etc. I appreciate the exact positioning will vary between aircraft, but...

Take a look at www.ukskies.co.uk about 600 aircraft types and variants. Covers civil aircraft including loads of helicopters & gyros, also covers airliners, light aircraft, microlights and all sorts. Has very many unusual aircraft and indeed unique aircraft.

They were computer generated. Some of the differences in the movie was that they added endplates to the horizontal stabilizer on the tail and there was no cant in the vertical fin. I am sure that they had to make the differences so it would not be and exact replica for security reasons. But none...

Nick has been offered, and has accepted the position of Senior VP for Engineering and XWorx confirmed by those working at Bell's XWorx plant!!! There has been 'discussion' between the parties on this for some time, but apparently it has finally been approved and accepted! -- Message posted using...

Anyone had any dealings with this company or the owner, Al Gerbino? He has moved from LBG, anyone know where he is now?.

To start off, I am 18 years old and graduating from high school. I am very strong academically and intellectually, with scores of 1560 and 32 on my SAT and ACT, respectively. Hopefully this means that I am suited to handle the mental tasks of being a pilot. As cliché as it is, I have wanted to...

Afganistan ( shot down ? ) Hawaii and Wisconsin / Actually first ones down in a while.

Flew at 10am yesterday and damned if I didn't fly like I knew what the hell I was doing... I'd been eyeballing the weather since I woke up at 6 and DUATS said it'd be relatively clear until the early evening so I hopped on the bike and headed to work - wanted to squeeze in a couple hours before...

A Google search didn't turn up anything so let me appeal direct. Some years ago I saw a vendor selling a little plastic toy gyrocopter at a PRA Fly-In that flew much like a kite in the wind at the end of a line. Over the next couple years I saw the same toy at EAA events such as Lakeland and...
