Stan,

Do you know anything more about Ken Bricker's machine. Is that an Air Command Elite with a dominator tail? I like it.

That used to be Greg Gremminger's "High Command" Air Command. It's in it's third life.

Stan,

Those are some terrific photos you took at Shelbyville! I was there and drooled over your machine, it is beautiful. I also was really impressed with the rebuild job Ken Bricker did on the Air Command. He was really doing a beautiful job of flying it also. I would love to have that gyro!!

Thanks for all the photos you show here on the Forum.

Also wonder if Joe is affected by helmet head syndrome, or is he always square headed?

Stan, your post #12. First pix on the left. Isn't that the offending gyro you mentioned in another post??? :confused:

Chuck: That gyro in post # 12 wasnt the one. BTW...isnt that Nick and Adams nice gyrobee? I think it is.

Here is the one that came right at me....and then passed and cut me off also. He also did a vertical descent....misjudged the ground coming up...bounced it something terrible.....and then kept flying. Then later he was flying down the runway immediately after the big twin engine plane departed. We were just holding our breath that the wing vortices didnt get him. All of this except for him following the twin engine was captured by Bill Finnigans excellent video taping. I could not believe all the infractions...

Yep Stan, your right. Right club, wrong gyro.

He's in the same PRA chapter as you are. Next time you see him..................

Chuck: I made a mistake. For his safety and all the other fellow pilots....I should have been much more forceful. I started that way...but soon got the drift that I should let it go. Others later told me different. That incident is over. But the next time...... :mad: All I can say that if I ever endanger someone else like that.....I hope somebody gets right in my face and lets me have it.
