Made it to Bangkok, had a great day waking around Chautuchak market. Had some great food too!
Headed out for a night on the town with Wifey....
Small layover in Sigapore in 2 days the off to Sydney!

Headed your way Muz, beware!!!:)

lucky you are
have good fun bro

Have fun.

Hilarious,
I was exchanging comments bellow one of the Murray's recent youtube videos,
here is what a gyroplane fan wrote about the other forum ...

"YEs please. I obviously have a thirst for understanding. I do lurk on the forum in the states which is now championed by Vance Brees around others."

I had proposed him to visit SW to see a couple of non hero gyro fans just motivated my friendship and passion .. (without giving him and certitude on the fact he would be accepted of not)

Which video was that comment on Giro? Or was it on the other forum? I am trying to find it I mention our forum in my description... trying to get some new members

this one bro

apart this did you meet our favourite Guam GI ?
I wish I was there for a giant barbecue !

haha... no, I haven't heard from Benry yet... he is probably full on sight seeing...

He is down Sydney way, he might come up to the Gold Coast and if he does, I will drive down that way and meet him like half way (it is a 3 hour drive)

He might not get time to come up so far from Sydney this time ... we will see

He might not have realised just how big Australia is... it takes almost 10 hours to drive from Sydney to Brisbane... If we can't meet this trip, I am sure he will be back again and he can fly to Brisbane.

Wow!! somehow I missed those comments... great reading

Hey guys!
We are in the Blue Mountains today.
Had to buy a jacket in Katoomba yesterday...
I just can't handle the cold anymore;)
Muz, we have a big comfy SUV and are driving up the coast. I will give you a call soon.
I had to get a sim chip for our phone.

We had a dinner last night and an incredible parrot show joined us! It was like eating at a pet shop!

What a fantastic day yesterday! We strolled around Byron Bay, eastern most point of Australia in beautiful weather.
It was sooo nice I told Kat, we gotta go to the local airstrip...
I met a great guy and struck up a conversation.
Before you know it, we are cruising around whales lighthouse and beaches with bikinis in his MTO Sport!
My first ride in an Autogiro. It is very sedate in its flying charicteristics. I bet if you were a new pilot it would be an easy rig to learn in.
Got great video and pics, but cant post from a phone...

fantastic !
can you fly a gyro in autralia with your US licence ?
it would not be possible for me as I only have a French ultralight licence which is not accepted outside Europe
have fun ..
be careful in autogyros .. they are made from the same steel sink are made of hahahaha

Not sure about license issues. Didn't ask.
As for being careful, I checked the rotor blades, roots and hub as well as mast for cracks before climbing in.
I will say theres not much room in the back seat for a portly fellows tummy....I had to suck in a bit on take off;)

Had an awesome time today with our very own Muz!
We went to a gunshop and saw one hell of a colle tion, then had some lunch and great conversation.
Giro, you would have fit in quite nicely to the conversation....
Maybe next time!
Thanks again Murry!

But did you ride his battery powered wheelie thingy?

I wish I was there

Well Hills the way he describes it it is the gyroplane of euc's
And no...still not convinced!
Weredriv8ng back down to Sydney area, only another 7 hours to go!

He wanted desperately to take it for a spin... but, unfortunately it was raining

Was awesome Benry!

I am pining....

I could see Benrey on the wheelie thingy getting muddy unable to stop "Jane! Jane! Stop this crazy thing!"
As Astro the dog and Comet the cat watched with glee....

I might look more like Fat Albert!
