Wake-up call :director:

Bear with me a moment. I visited Sport Copter about 4 years ago and spent a couple of hours touring. Yesterday Dennis Dubois, Brock Stiener and I spent four hours catching up on all the changes and innovations happening at Sportcopter.
Jim shared with us the new designs and designing techniques used to develop the SC2 as most of us know it. This ship has morphed again, and it is truly the most beautifully crafted and well designed gyroplane available. Some of the changes are still trade secrets, that I believe will put this machine in a league of it's own.
With that said the updated Vortex M-912 designed for the Australian outback sold me on what a single place should be, tough and agile. This machine looks like it was designed, built to get the job done. The Rotax 912 has the power to zoom up and over trees and ridges. There's talk of a new motor option, sure to please everyone, lower cost and more power, this is the one if your looking to buy a quality single place and can afford to do it right the first time.

Isn't it better to see this stuff in person? You really get a better idea of what we're doing here.
I'm glad you had a chance to visit us again. Maybe we'll see you at the BBQ next month?
