Looking for a nice set of White, 25' SkyWheels in very good to like new shape. Factory matched set and flown. This is for a Single place Air Command and will be flown at altitude. 5 to 7000 feet.
If you have a set your willing to part with or know some one who does please let me know.
Contact Tom Milton, He had a set of 25's white. he was asking $100 per ft. I bought the 27's that he had. Gyroplanes@aol.com
Tom said the set he has belongs to the club they are going to use on the a trainer. So thats one is out.
Again I am in no hurry. If ya all would keep me in mind if and when you know some one that has a set of White 25' like new or really good condition I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Mark

I currently have a set of NON Airworthy 24' Dragon Wings. These has a prop strike that the asshole I purchased my gyro from told me was not a problem. At the time I did not know the difference. My fault. It was a buyer beware issue that bit me.
These blades will be good for doing crow hops and balancing on the mains but nothing more.
I need 25' for my altitude and although Dragon Wings are good blades, I want the Skywheels, again for my altitude.

Why not go dragon wings again? They are far cheaper, far lighter and if not more efficient.... as efficient..... for 'your altitude' surely a 30# weight reduction would be a good thing? Have you ended up with that air command with the DW's that the bottom skin got cut by the prop?

I feel an 8" cord blade would be of benefit at my altitude and SkyWheels produce more inertia. One of our members here have both and he says the very much prefers the SkyWheels.
This gyro is probably not advertised here or on the other forum. I found it Barnstormers. This is a fairly well know guy in the East. He just flips gyros to support his habit. He is liar and cheat and when I see some one trying to buy from him I ask them if they want to hear my story.
Again, this is my fault. I own it. I jumped in with out knowing much. He just took advantage of that.
I have spent the last year and a half rebuilding this AC. I have learned a lot. It has been a good education. I know way more now than I would have had it been airworthy and started flying right away. I am in no hurry. Taking my time and doing things right. I will wait to see if a set of SkyWheels come up for sale.
