They don't make them anymore as they used to, huh? :D

I like the idea of a giro [do not read gyro, although, those are good, too] and the few times I have seen one flying, they have been, simply amazing.

Great news. This is certainly top of my Oshkosh dance card! :D

Are you planning to fly during Airventure? Where do I queue to stow away?

Because of its wind limitations we will probably fly it early in the morning at some point during Airventure, maybe on several days. Afternoon flights are possible, but the morning ones are more likely.

We haven't taken any passengers yet, but eventually will.......
