I'd secure those rear belts a little tighter.

looks like the guy in the back bailed out!

@turnaful I believe he was aerobatting it to a nervous german pupil and overloaded the rotor which invoked a stall with the tragic ending
-
It is sad to hear the pilot died at a crash with this Gyro.
My deep expression of sympathy to his family and friends.
Is it known why that fatal crash happened?
-
That appeared to be an excellent landing.smooth. Is that correct?...anyone? comment?

@starkertyp1 Aviations universal language is English.

roughly how fast were you going when you landed?
landing, tuch down, between 10 and 0 km/h, depends on wind, weight, air density......

depends on wind, weight, air density....... exact vertical app. 900- 1500 ft/ min, with forward speed less, depends on the speed you fly. Best speed for low gliding angle is between 60 and 70 miles.
