Gyro Accident in Queensland

[Brian]

Heard from two independent sources now that there has been a gyro accident in Western Queensland. Seems the pilot has a broken leg.Anyone know anything??

As far as I know ASRA hasn"t been notified of any accidents Brian.

Heard last week a gyro had gone down and emergency services were called. Other than that I haven"t heard anything else.

I guessed as much Murray. Apparently it made a newspaper somewhere as a Broken Hill stock agent knew all about it.

I know for a fact that it wasn"t a gyro, it was an ultralight accident down Cunnamulla way.He had refuelled and after take-off had engine trouble and put it down.

Thanks Lionel, thats good news it wasnt a gyro although its not so good for the pilot.

A broken leg will grow back.

I was speaking to my mate this morning who put his plane down.He tells me there was a gyro crash 3 days after he put his down.You know what the bush telegraph is like, story gets bigger and better every time.Sorry for my miss communication.Yet to hear anything about the gyro.

I have heard nothing more. Mustn"t be too serious.
