Anyone interested Sunstate Wing & Rotor Club PRA Ch# 26 is holding its monthly fly-in November 20th, Saturday at Labelle, Florida Airport. All is Welcome to come.

Sunstate is providing HotDogs / Hamburgers so bring a drink or chips
Eat around 11 - 12.

Antique Aircraft Association is also having a Fly-In Saturday Nov 20 at Labelle Airport and plan to mingle with us. Should be interesting to hear what some say about the Gyro's...

Look forward to seeing everyone soon. MJ :)

We are making plans M.J.! :)
Two weekends in a row at Imokalee and last saturday we had good turn out and 5 machines flying all the time, beautifull day.
Chances are (God willing) I will be in Brazil, but in case not, we are going to see you guys after quite some time . . .
I am beating the drum about this event!

Today we are going to have a meeting here in Pompano, last time only 4 came and the enthusiasm kinda went south.
The current list has 47 names and I hope at least 20 will show up this time, seen the hardware is the definitive catalitic to get this guys involved.
I am booked to Brazil this friday and will be back in january with the grace of God, for a last leg of arrangements for my final move back to the old country.
I will advise all that come to our meeting to go to La Belle and have the same kind of fun and hospitality I always get. Thank you all!

I am M.J. for whatever is good!
Will always miss all of our Family and the good times I had around them.
But no for good, I will be around several times a year, especially if our new Club catches on . . .
We had the meeting yesterday and Tri-County Rtor Wings Club is going to the papers (legal that is) with 15 members to start.
The year dues are 50 bucks and the founders get to fly in a gyro for the first time paid by the club.
a suitable area will be a problem, we may have to buy one or get a grant from the government to secure an area.
Our logo is a flying "T" and soon we will have hats, pins and shirts to sell, from Brazil of course . . . . :)
The project includes paying for a new instructor or two in the next year, Jake could be one and Hector is getting warmed up for it.
We have several pilots, one Viet Vet (heli pilot) 5 gyros and two guys that we have to keep in chains before they buy and go up to early . . .
It is all good and our place of meeting is very nice.
thanks
Heron (on the 9:15 am flight down under)

Just wanted to thank MJ & Rich and the gang at Labelle for coordinating such a great event this past Saturday.
Got to meet some good folk, see quite a few nice machines(Gyros,Ultralights,FixWing and Powered Chutes) and the 'burgers and dogs' were delicious, and as usual the weather was just post-card picture perfect : )
Looking foward to next get together at the best little 'ol Gyro club in the USA. Keep up the great work. My sign up dues are on the way!
