It would be nice to show some gyros. Very nice flight following some nice highway and some beautiful lake scenery. |

What a great fly in????????????? We need to make an effort next year to show up in large numbers boys and girls. They had treated us like royalties. Even Lofty!!!! Great food and shitload of flying machines. Weather was perfect 74* 5 KTS wind. Damn we live in paradise. |

Yes. They have parked us right at the announcer. He was an awesome guy. We did a fly by for them. |

OK so here is some video of the flight to Palatka yesterday. The bracket I built to hold the Osmo gimbal camera needs a little refinement to stabilize it further and I think some fine vibration rubberized isolation. But overall pretty happy with the video. Unfortunately the battery died as we were coming in to land so it conked out at the end. You can begin to see the loss of stabilization about a minute before the end. |

I thought the camera was fine (until the last bit) but the rest of it was great... easy to watch (except when that ugly bloke came into frame) That's prolly what broke the camera? |

Quote: mr.methvin@gmail.com via vps.zoniehosting.com 8:43 AM (2 hours ago) to me OR, by email: mailto:mr.methvin@gmail.com This is the message: Thank you for coming out and displaying your Gyros. People have been asking me a ton of questions all weekend (I was the announcer). I think your machines won the dead grass award for as long as they were there (and maybe tied with the Mohawk and P-51). Thanks again, and if you are in the Green Cove Springs area on the 2nd Saturday of any month (February 13th is the next one), there is an EAA meeting at Haller Airpark (7FL4, CTAF 122.9) that starts at 10:00. I am sure that if you were to fly in you would be the talk of the meeting! Kenny |
