My editing software was acting nuts at the time. It's the reason I put the time stamp for flying in the title. An interesting clip is a 3/4 scale P-51 kitplane flying over our heads just before take off. Neat engine sound.
Hi Brian Blue, Greetings from Oromov.. That was a very nice & professional flying ... Just want to know the following .. 1. CIF quote for 1 gyrocopter(incld Insurance Freight shipment & accessories) 2. Training cost & Training duration. 3. Do common man required flying lincense or FAA clearance. 4. Which type of Fuel is used. 5. Is the engine radial or like inline 4 stroke... PLZ DO REPLY BROTHER
Sorry for long long delay. 1. CFIs charge about $180 an hour...about same as private pilot fixed wing. 2. Trainings is about 20 hours. 3. You must have an FAA license. 4. 93 octane automotive gas is used. 5 The engine on this gyro is a 4 cycle 4 cylinder Subaru car engine with a gear reduction drive for the propeller
@Brian Blue >>> At about 07:04 in this video: Did that fixed wing pilot broadcast over the radio _before_ doing that _fly-by?_ {I presume that field is uncontrolled.}
Howie Rayburn Non controlled Airport....pilot communicates intentions. It's ultimately the PIC decision where to safely land....as long as intentions are communicated.

For an open frame machine with all the parasitic drag, it seems to be rather fast. I expect the engine is at least 130 hp with 600 pounds of push. Impressive.
@@sparkynapalm3662 is it faster than McGowen’s “ Black?” I don’t know what that rotary pushes. I trained on a Lycoming powered Parsons many decades ago. We didn’t push it during training. It would climb well but I don’t remember the speeds other than approach and glide which was 55.
Fortunately Florida as a number of gyro flight instructors. SilverLight Aviation in Zephyrhills,FL is one place. If you do a search online for "gyrocopter CFI listings" you'll find a number of sites that will list by state registered gyro flight instructors.
It was nice to add a bit of flying after seven minutes of admiring the very nice grass and smooth tarmac. Did you ever hear if video editing software ?
@@KutWrite No reasonable person posts a video where you have to watch seven minutes of rubbish before you get to the subject matter. If I posted a video of flying, and had seven minutes of feeding chicken beforehand would that be OK. Maybe for morons like yourself, it would be fine. A minute or so of introduction is fine, after that it is absurd BTW, what do you see wrong with constructive criticism?

That helmet is actually a military issue kevlar helicopter pilot helmet. Has mounts for nigh vision goggles and pull down visor. It belong to the pilot. My helmet is a traditional red fighter pilot helmet with a pull down visor.
Need to talk and go see some gyro pilots...the gyros are inherently safer to fly than fixed wings and helicopters because how they fly...the physics behind it. They cannot stall and even with an engine failure they land with no problem.
Kent Williams Bird strike? Never had one in 40 years. I guess you could get hit by one on a motorcycle too......or a jet ski......or a roller coaster......etc....etc....
Safer then a motorcycle or shall we call it a donor cycle! I use to ride, then I started flying, never went back to riding after I nearly got killed by an old lady in a Cadillac!
Who cares about traffic patterns 7:22 especially the plane that had to avoid you and go around 7:01 . Low wing 1000.AGL left hand traffic wouldn't have even seen you at 8:26 .
This is uncontrolled airport...no tower. Pilots declare their intentions. This was a biannual flyin with multiple aircraft and the event hosted by the gyro pilot in this video. The 3/4 scale P51 you saw flyover took off just before we did and was informed we would be taking off right behind him. He made a left turn at take off , circled around and lined up left of runway for his high speed pass. This gyro along with the other planes were in radio contact for intentions, directional vectors, Altitude and more. You may also notice we landed on the taxiway which is common there with so many gyros since landing rolls can literally be 10 to 30 feet. Check out 'gyro geralds' gyro UA-cam channel for more...see Carolina Barnstormers Fly-in videos
I have made a similar flight to this one with Barry. I'm wondering exactly what your problem with it is. I had a great time and did not feel unsafe at any point.
Now that's the real fun of flying.
I so wish I could afford a gyrocopter.
The more I learn about gyrocopters the more I want one. You did a nice job on your takeoff and landing!
9:53 that field run is just awesome. Cos of the helmet, its like a Vietnam war movie
i realize it's kind of off topic but does anybody know a good site to watch new movies online?
@Arjun Tyler I use FlixZone. You can find it by googling :)
@Arjun Tyler I watch on flixzone. You can find it on google =)
Very awesome flying!
Great video of sitting on the runway.

Brian Blue you can’t make everyone happy, lol. I’m happy. I liked your video ;)
That was great fun. Thank you
If only Orville and Wilbur could see this now.
The first time solo must be a rush
A rush that U would want to continue! Fun fun fun!...
That's awesome
Awesome!

Raise your hands if you wanna go faster.......oooops.
Cool thing is all gyros that I know of and have flown have rotor mast high enough your hands will be find if you raise your arms.
@Brian Blue >>> At about 07:04 in this video: Did that fixed wing pilot broadcast over the radio _before_ doing that _fly-by?_
{I presume that field is uncontrolled.}
saw that too
Yes.....radios are required at this airport.....as with most uncontrolled airports.
@@tomthompson7400 me too.
Ge
I noticed that also!🤔...
video starts at 6:41
I didn't know you were able to land on a taxiway with aircraft actively flying and taxiing.

I want this

It is quite fast. Uses a Subaru 4 cylinder with carburetor and had carb heater.

@@crawford323 I would dare say its as fast if not faster. It climbs steeply like a scalded dog. Those low level runs are between 80-90 mph
@@crawford323 I have a few other videos on my channel of the Snobird ...first one back about 5 years ago. Check them all.

Brilliant. Can anyone else hear the theme from M.A.S.H. ?
I hear "Ride Of The Valkyries," as played from the choppers' speakers in 'Apocalypse Now.'

Hi what's top speed just wanted to know🎅🚁
Sorry for long delay...top speed about 90 mph
some seriously long fields round those parts.
It was nice to add a bit of flying after seven minutes of admiring the very nice grass and smooth tarmac. Did you ever hear if video editing software ?
That's precisely why i put in the title when the flying starts....gotta read!

What is the thrust to weight ratio
I'm not sure as this is my friends gyro but the Subaru motor on it makes it fly amazingly well. Ill ask him n try n find out
Stick it on the taxiway lol
Where'd you get that cool helmet from??
That helmet is actually a military issue kevlar helicopter pilot helmet. Has mounts for nigh vision goggles and pull down visor. It belong to the pilot. My helmet is a traditional red fighter pilot helmet with a pull down visor.
You won't get me in that thing.

Interesting. I suddenly realized that there was no protection for the pilot putting him in danger if there was a bird strike.
Kent Williams Bird strike? Never had one in 40 years. I guess you could get hit by one on a motorcycle too......or a jet ski......or a roller coaster......etc....etc....
Heck..You could just be standing under a tree and next thang you KNOW?????....Pppp looppp!!!!!....Instant "Creme Rinse" for your hair!!!!!!!...😭😭😭😭😟😟😟

what the speed?
65-90 mph
Pls name of city
This is at the Anson County airport in Wadesboro, North Carolina
Bad to the bone fun have to take extra pairs of pants with that hobby

No….that’s over 40 years of experience. 😁

Flying low cause we can. Have you seen the video of us in the Cavalon gyro buzzing the field? link here ua-cam.com/video/8OU98We-mcw/v-deo.html
