I am excited about Bensen Days because I will get to spend some time with some wonderful friends and meet new friends that have a common passion for Autogiros.

I will get to see how people have handled the details of creating their perception of an improved gyroplane.

As I sit beside the runway I will get to see many unique Autogiros fly.

I hope to get several hours of dual instruction.

I will get to meet people from this forum and look them in the eye as they communicate.

I expect to learn a great deal.

I will walk with giants.

That’s what I am excited about, Vance

Your welcome Greg, you are one of the friends I am looking forward to visiting with.

I always enjoy your gregarious nature and learn from your example.

If things work out I will have Ed with me and I look forward to her meeting some of the people she has heard so much about. She was at the freedom fly in briefly to launch me toward home. This will be her first multi day immersion into the world and people of Autogiros.

Thank you, Vance

Can wait to see everybody.
