Yesterday, I was approached by my local Rotary Club and asked if I would give a talk on my "gyro copters." I know you all are like me, and love to talk about our gyros to anyone who might be remotely interested, however, I don't have anything in the way of a presentation to give this group. Has anyone or would anyone be interested, that has some tech savvy with PowerPoint or some other presenatation software, be interested in putting together a presentation about gyros that members of this forum or the PRA could use to help educate groups about our sport?
I envision something that demonstrates the differences between helicopters and gyros, the different kind of airframes (pusher vs. tractor), some history on the aircraft and pictures of different brands. The presentation could even include answers to questions about what training and certification is required and the proposed Sport Pilot.
I wish that I had the know how to create something of this nature. I was hoping that someone might have the time and the ability in this group. I would be willing to help with a project of this nature if there was anyone else that might be interested. Anyone?
