Dear Rotary Winged Enthusiasts,
With EAA's Oshkosh and the PRA's Mentone Events in August, we took the month off. However it will soon be Sept. and our next Event is coming up soon so I thought I would send out a reminder. Our next regularly scheduled meeting will be the first Sat. in Sept. (9-6-08) at 10 AM and will be held at the Airgyro Hangar at the Spanish Fork Airport. This month we will have our regular business meeting at 10 O'clock as normal but after the meeting we will be adjourning to the Hangar for Food and Fun. We will be grilling hamburgers and having a Pot Luck Luncheon as well as checking out some new Gyroplanes and doing some Flying.
We had a lot of new people request more information and show an interest in joining our organization, at the Helicopter Meet in June, so hopefully many of them can join us this month and get to know the group better. It should be a great meeting and a good time to socially get to know one another better afterwards. Please feel free to bring Spouses and or Kids that would have an interest in what we are doing. If we can get some of our members to bring their Gyro's (even if they aren't flying yet) we should have quite a few different Gyroplanes for everyone to check out. Mike Brownlee should have his new Butterfly Aurora there with a Rotax 912S, G-Force Landing Gear and the new shaft drive Metro Launch System. That will be an incredible Gyro to check out and see what it can do. And hopefully we will have some others there as well.
Larry Neal (designer of the Butterfly line of Gyroplanes) will be making a trip to Utah, next week. I am not sure what his schedule will be like yet but if I can, I would love to schedule a time when some of our group could meet him and talk Gyroplanes for a while. Maybe we could schedule a luncheon at a restaurant or something like that get to spend some time talking to him about Gyro design. If you would be interested in being part of that group please respond to this thread so I can get a count of how many people would like to meet him. Also if you would be willing to bring something (food item) for our Pot Luck Luncheon on the 6th, let me know so I can make assignments and make sure we get everything covered.
See You All Soon!!!!
