Thanks all.
Appreciate the kind words..

Im looking at a " Wind Ryder" Gyro. There is a local one available needing a litle TLC . Its a single place, but the $ are right. Any of you boys have any comments on them?

I need to add an apology. When Interviewed I said gyros were a handful to fly.... I should have said.. MINE was! Hands free would have been a fantacy!
Cheers
