Ken used this film to instruct his gyro students in the 1970's. Times have changed and dual instruction is now available. Self instruction can be very dangerous.
This jogs my memory used to work for Ken Brock on Western Ave in Stanton, CA. His son Ken Jr and I were friends. While working there I met Burt Rutan and his brother, we made parts for various airplanes of thier's including the Rutan VariViggen, a two-seat pusher single-engine craft of canard configuration. Several of us would go to that dry lake bed and watch these guys fly. Ken Sr was the Yoda for the group eveyone looked up to him and learned from him. Several co-workers built and flew these.
I have looked for mos. and this is the best!!

Interesting video, but that music in the background makes it difficult to watch.
