  • It takes a real man to fly a pink gyro :) Great Vid

  • @B0rnToRoll  No, u use the ejection seats! :P

  • if the engine stops could you fly back down or are you FUUUUUCKED?

  • @argophontes All you need is couple of old fans, lawnmower, bicycle chain & a pair of hands

  • Is that the Pumicestone passage and Bribie Island in the background?

  • @nujazzplay This brother has been flying gyros and helis for over 40 years

  • @nujazzplay I beg to differ,I am a black man and I have been flying gyros off and on for more than 40 years.

  • we don't all have $35,000 laying around :)

  • a helicopter is a different animal, and will only autorotate if the pilot has practiced the emergency procedure (the rotor has to be positioned in a specific way for autorotation). an autogyro will do it automatically if the main engine cuts out, unless one 'unloads' the rotor (at some critical angle of attack).

  • the original name for these machines is autogyro, and that is the very thing it will do if the engine cuts out, autorotate safely to a (hopefully with practice) safe landing! with training, autogyros are the safest powered flyers.
