  • Sad News from the Sydney area.

    Many of you will have known Herman Roesch a long time Gyro pilot and Instructor. Tragically he was killed in an Ultralight Helicopter crash near the Richmond RAAF base yesterday.

        Herman did have a turbine powered Helicycle but had a problem with the rotor balance and damaged it while trying to sort it out. His new chopper was powered by a Rotax 582.

            I"m afraid a 582 in a helicopter is not on. A Mini 500 out this way with a 582 seized up at a very inopportune time and the pilot was extremely fortunate to sort of walk away.
