I think I've watched every one of Ron's videos. I've learned a lot from him. I have scheduled advanced training with him this summer. I think he's been flying gyros since helping that Spanish guy get that first Autogiro into the air! 😋

I love Ron’s video.

I will recommend it to my potential clients because it answers a lot of unasked questions.

Ron helps me to be a better flight instructor and I am proud to know him.

I have known Ron most of my life. He and Dad have been flying about the same amount of time. They learned the same way. Ron had a hot rod KB. He put on quite a show back then.

My cousin Arlen and I drove 2,300 miles to Searcy, AR. for a week's worth of training with Ron, what a character, we'd take him to lunch every day, it was always this funky, hippy place that he liked, he was quite the bohemian! I really enjoyed Ron as a person and as a flight instructor. We ended up getting eight hours a piece, losing one day because of bad weather.
