Just watched this on the big screen Henry. Wow, what an amazing journey you've had this year in flight. Thanks for sharing these amazing views from such a great perspective.
thx for sharing! You've got me so far, that I'm considering to switch from trikes to gyros too. I had already my fair share of extensive talks so far, and now I've made an appointment with near located instructor. We are aiming to have my few initiation flights in the February, as the wetter calms it self down in the region, that I'm currently located in. Although, I do still have major concerns regarding higher maintenance costs and effort in reference to the rotor head, but the logistics and storing may compensate for that more than enough. Looking forward to learn more. And wish you the best luck and success in the upcomming year mate!
Glad to hear that you are making a good decision. You will have no regret. My gyro friends fly 100 to 150 hours a year versus trike friends barely 50 hours. Overall cost could not be worse compared to trikes. Rotor blades and heads last 2,000 to 2,500 hours except main bearing. Trike wings doesn’t last that long. I have no idea higher maintenance cost and effort on rotor head you are stating.
Wow, Henry, this was one amazing journey... I probably should be the last one to complain about gyro flying, but I am jealous... Keep those videos coming...
Fantastic video. You are living my dream. I would love to duplicate your flights someday in my own gyro. How did you get your gyro from place to place? Did you fly everywhere from home or did you trailer it? Were there any legal problems flying over the national parks or populated areas like San Francisco? Thanks!
I trailered my gyro to the most places in the video. I drive my RV with an open trailer behind it. I follow VFR minimums in my flights. FAA recommends 2000 AGL over National Parks, but it is not a mandatory. VFR minimum: www.ecfr.gov/current/title-14/chapter-I/subchapter-F/part-91/subpart-B/subject-group-ECFRe4c59b5f5506932/section-91.119
Just WOW! I have so many questions! I was studying for my PPL, and I won't pass the physical because of conditions. But flying has been a literal dream of mine for some time now. I began looking at LSA's (the Icon A5 and Seamax), then I started looking at Gyro's. My questions are a bit late - but hopefully you'll get a look at this. Are they Safer than the Icon A5 (which I truly cannot afford)? If so - which name brand should I go with? How far can I go? Is it possible to carry extra fuel? I'm seriously concerned with taking off and landing. Most all videos i've seen show a runway takeoff and one guy said you need significant wind to not only take-off - but to fly as well. Is this factual? What if i am in a place where there is not enough runway? Sorry - I just don't have anyone to answer these.
Hi Henry, I see that you have many flights in Colorado. I only know 2 other gyroplane owner pilots that fly out of Space Port (Front Range Airport). Do you live in Colorado?
@@HenryGyroLife that is awesome. If you stop by again in Colorado. You could visit. I have a little house in Strasburg 80136 where I am flying my new gyro. There is a dirt landing strip of about 1000ft. Right now a bit cold to fly though.
Henry, as always your video is absolutely breathtaking! What type of career do you have that affords you the time to travel around to all these great places to fly your Gyro? I’ve been subbed since a long time ago when you were flying the trike. I have a REVOLT. We’ve spoken many times before on FB. You gave me lots of good advice! I’m giving my trike one more year, and if I’m still having difficulty getting comfortable in it I will probably have to sell it. 😒 was only able to put about 10 hrs on it this past year. New England sucks for trikes.
Thanks for being watching my videos. 10 hrs is way little. It could be dangerous for you to fly. You should get a gyro for wether. You can fly through pretty bad winds with no tension. I already flew 275 hours in 20 months. I sold all my trikes and no regret about it.
Beautiful video, thanks for sharing
I am totally impressed with the coverage. You were high enough over the Golden Gate, that I could actually see the Earth's curvature.
Yes, but it’s not earth curvature. It’s an effect of wide angle lens.
Amazing trip 😍
Tou are à true pilot👍
Freaking beautiful! I want to fly a Gyro so bad!
Beautiful wow! Thank You.
Stunning footage. I loved it
Stunning!!!
Beyond words!!!
Thankyou for sharing!!🦘🎄
Beautiful ❤
Absolutely amazing. Great filming and the music fits as well. Thanks for that one. Hope to see more...
Just watched this on the big screen Henry. Wow, what an amazing journey you've had this year in flight. Thanks for sharing these amazing views from such a great perspective.
I put over 160 hours on my gyro in 2021. My goal in 2022 is 200 hours.
Great video, excellent music tract. Thanks Henry!
Thanks, Kent !!
Your video is award winning! Just awesome.
TY !!
Fantastic eye candy
Nice compilation of memories.
Awesome Henry.
Superb flying and great videography .... It makes me want to come fly in your stunning country 😉
Stunning videography! 😍
An epic adventure mate, brings back all of your videos watching that clip.
Love this 💜💜💜 !!!
Awesome scenery 🙂
Very fortunate man! Thanks for sharing!!
Henry, Great video. Question, did you have to have oxygen to fly at over 12,000 feet near Gothic Mountain? If so what did you use?
Yes I did. I use small Mountain High system.
What incredible adventures and beautiful cinematography! Hope to see you again in 2022.
Thank you, Chris. I want to fly to Yosemite N.P. Next year !!

Magnifico.
Thank you
I watched the video and fell in love with the sky. You guys are great! The video is beautifully shot, and the music is gorgeous!
Increíble. Maravilloso.
FANTASTIC!!!!!!!
Россия вас смотрит!!!

awesome!
Beautiful Video as usual. Do you Trailer The Gyro around to different places or Just Fly ? Id be curious as to trailering setup and time if you do..
I don’t like flying my gyro for long cross country. I normally trailer my gyro.
Setup rotor on Gyroplane less than 20 min on Road Trip

@HenryGyroLife what is it about it that you don't like flying on long cross country ? How does this compare to trikes ?
@@tonyvanover2253 some pilots fly their gyros 8 hours a day. I’m a bit old for that kind of flight. I love much better my gyro than my trikes.
@@tonyvanover2253 I think it much better than trike. Because I can fly it in turbulence for all day.

Hi Henry, I see that you have many flights in Colorado. I only know 2 other gyroplane owner pilots that fly out of Space Port (Front Range Airport). Do you live in Colorado?
I live in Southern California. I visited my gyro friend in Colorado. He flies out of Meadow Lake Airport.
@@HenryGyroLife that is awesome. If you stop by again in Colorado. You could visit. I have a little house in Strasburg 80136 where I am flying my new gyro. There is a dirt landing strip of about 1000ft. Right now a bit cold to fly though.
Cool !!
Why did you switch from trikes to gyroplanes?
12,000 miles in 6 minutes we'll done 😁
