That's a good alternative, thanks for the suggestion.

Training.......I've been calling around and anyone whos qualified to train is booked forever, unlike learning to brew beer, I don't think I can learn to fly a gyro from youtube (even though the videos make it look so easy).

LOL, you're preaching to the choir on that "let's go brandon" rant but I'll stick to the subject at hand. I didn't mean to encourage you towards a private pilot license, more towards getting a good introduction into the entire flying/aviation environment. Definitely plan on getting me a vegan mocha latte with a celery spritzer! Nope, PBR or Bud work for me. I ride an '04 Softail Deuce. Regards

Hi Emil, The private pilot license is not as bad as you may think. I suggest you take a few lessons at least to the solo stage and see what you think about it then. At that point you'll have a much better understanding of everything and be able to make a much more informed decision regarding what level of training/certification (if any) is best for you and the type of flying you want to do. Can do!

I've been flying (mostly Cessna 172's) for 25 years and have owned 2 ultralights (both were bad experiences - or bad purchases I should say). I contacted (literally 5 minutes ago) an instructor to get Gyro training. I'm in MD and am VERY interested in the Nanogyro. I think at 215 to 220 lbs I'll need the 50 hp engine.
