Chris,
You will love flying gyros if flew taildraggers! Gyros are much simpler than helos without all the transmissions. Get Tyger to fly down and give you a flight in his Magni. I prefer the open gyros since seems fewer accidents than enclosed. The fly outs at the Cub events are a blast. Not sure they would like gyros joining them. I use to run trap at local club, but decided it was to hard on hearing even with ear plugs. Can’t Imagine how loud jet engine would be with after burners on. Sounds like you have a great job. Barnstormers have lots of nice used gyros for sale now too. There is an AR-1 for sale in CA. Dave
