I am sorry to report that a gyro went down, apparently yesterday afternoon in Putnam County. The pilot was Anthony Mattioli of Lake Mary, Florida and South Carolina. I first saw this posted on Facebook that he was missing, then was sent this report a short while ago. I met him for the first time just a couple of weeks ago when he was preparing his beautiful gyro for a flight the next day. He had recently completed the build. He was hangared just across from me at KDED. No cause is yet established, my condolences to his family
1 dead in Putnam County gyrocopter crash
The pilot, 62-year-old man from Lake Mary, was pronounced dead at the scene.
