Mitch,Looks like you and the family are having the trip of a life time.I look forward to giving you a call on your return to talk about any new gyro developments you might have seen in the US.I am just a tad jealous!Regards,Adrian S ;D ;D ;D ;DAdrian Mate,Got to interview Chuck Beaty together with Ernie Boyette, Wow! What an interview, talk about gyro history, informative, educational and entertaining....the DVD/Blu Ray interview and picture package I am putting together for ASRA and the PRA to distribute to members will be a must have item in anyones gyroplane database/catalogue/library/video collection.Have Jon Daley MastaRoda, one of the nicest blokes you"d ever meet and smart, shoot, he has got it in bunches. I liked the young fella right off the bat, I wish we could have spent more time together he has so much to share and does so willingly.Jon Stark and JP Harrison with the 18A in California, interviewed together, top shelf blokes. Generous with their time and allowed me the privelege of a flight in the 18A, I even got a little stick time and we did do a jump takeoff.Larry Neal, what can I say, he knows his stuff and is one cool cat. He has been a great friend to me for many years now.Paul Plack, my pick of the most surprising characters I have met on this trip. I had corresponded with Paul and knew he was a generous and helpfull guy but meeting him and spending time with him was a pleasure and pleseantly surprising when I realised I needed to interview him. Bonus.Chuck Beaty, well that was "choice".

Chook, ;DThose are 45 S @ W rounds, some two shots per hole, there is 25 shots in that sheet, in that photo.Gabby was very generous he had 3 50 round packs of 45"s and 2 50 round packs of 9mm. I shot upwards of 100 45"s and approximately 35, 9mm rounds.The 45mm was a lot of fun and very smooth I have video which I"ll post down the track, you"ll see how sweet it shoots.Pulled up tonight in Virginia Beach, Military Jets flying over head, Elise and kids headed out to the beach while I enjoy a few quiet Evan Williams".......I have been enjoying the variety of Bourbon"s available here and at a price which lends itself to increase consumption rates. Tomorrow night I"m hanging out with my good friend Claudius Klimt who has the red ArrowCopter here in the US up in Baltimore, he doesen"t mind a bourbon either.Cheers,Mitch

Thanks for clearing that up Greg. I would have expected "rounder" holes but I suspect that the target was also flopping around as the proj entered causing the tearing.Were you using the Victorian police gun handling manual - stop, bang, or I"ll shoot? ;DAny pics of some of the more unusual yank gyros?
