Can anyone tell me why this gyro has skids in addition to wheels? I Think it is the Brako French gyro, but I don't get the skid thing. |

Probably so they can pretend it is a helicopter? A lot of gyro pilots really wish they had a helicopter... Maybe so they can put floats on easily? Because they can? |

For the ice and snow season? Yeah I'm grasping. And that overhead bar can't be much use. |

I know it is the same old euro tub frame, but I think it is good it doesn't have the usual bathtub mounted on it so it looks a bit different. I also saw pics of another 'naked' eurotub which looked good too.... Probably costs the same tho |

I would think that it is for engine out landings on fields that are to soft for wheels, years ago there was a man who put a ski in font of the nose wheel on a bensen for engine out landings in bean fields, I think his name was Bob Potts . Norm |
