I did have a blast, He is about 20 miles away, the external tanks worked great,
He has a north-south and an east-west runway they are about 1400 ft kind of short, but plenty for a gyro or ultralight.
They fly gobs of RC aircraft there, the whole ceiling in the hangar is RC aircraft,
he has one that has a bomb bay, and was dropping parachutes and candy for the kids,
After I got there the 3 other guys arrived in the challengers and the eindecker.
And yes every one was impressed with the gyro, even the fixed wing guys said it would be fun to fly. :)

What kind of External tanks have you installed? sounds like you plan to do more cross country flying.

I installed a set of Air command tanks, 2 each @ 2.5 gal each, plus the seat tank, gives me about 11 gallons usable fuel, right about 2 hours.

Oh nice. when I get more along with my gyro I want to install long range tanks. have not decided what type yet but will most likely be metal tanks of some type.
Your Video was pretty cool, look forward to more some time.
