The best part of flying a gyro are the lifetime friends you make. It gets better when you fly with a buddy that also flies a gyro. If this is your situation, you understand what I mean and probably feel like one of the luckiest people in the world. I sure do.
For 2011, I challenge each person reading this post to find one person who wants to learn how to fly a gyro and together begin flying. That may mean travel, it may mean sacrifice. It will take commitment but it will be worth the effort.
This last fall I watched two of my gyro friends (Jimmy O. & John W.) do just that. They made a commitment to get instruction together. They traveled together. They trained together. They struggled together. They were together when each other soloed. Then they soloed in their Bee's within a month of each other. Great job guys! I am proud of you!
Start today. Find a person and make a commitment to fly together.
Together!
Jim
