Default Woo-hoo!

Looks great, Will. And VERY close to completion.
You shouldn't have any problems with visibility, should you!

Your Magni is sure looking good Will. We appreciate the pictures and the updates. Looks like you will be in the air soon.

Are you training now or are you going to wait and use your machine? Are instructors easy to find in your area?

Thanks
Arnie

That thing is on the trailer on the way to the field for testing (or on the way back). Should be on it's way very soon!

We have quite a few instructors here in the UK now and all are very good in my experience (have had lessons with 5!) although the style differs. I've only done around 40 hours (mostly on MTs) - you can't hire a gyro here yet because of legal restrictions so you either have to buy a share (I only know of MT shares available) or buy an aircraft before you can go solo. I opted for the latter having selected a Magni and hope to finish off the licence when it arrives. It's been a journey - but I have only written off one aircraft so far (first attempt at solo - better luck next time!)

C'mon Will, that wasn't a write off, it just fell over. Next one will be fine.
