I agree Jester. Perhaps a gyro system could be one more tool in the box to help folks along. I have helped all kinds of folks with what we would associate with disabilities. I have come to understand that if anyone has the desire and the can do spirit, I will do my best to help them. My club is like so many others. Some in the club could care less about helping anyone, but most go out of their way to help. We have done some very remarkable things over the years. Each person that comes out to join in have their problems. Some times these "problems" are not really problems. Most of the time it is something different. One of my best stories is the latest person that joined in. I struggled for over a year teaching this man. Many of those, what I call unhappy people, complained about me spending so much time with this fellow. The man is a very good pilot and dear friend now. I found out over time he had polio as a child and just living had been a life long struggle for him.
Over the years the membership has helped train many folks making all sorts of things. Transmitter trays to special chairs to sit in while flying and all sorts of things in between.
I did do something I was ashamed of. One of the new guys from some place else was getting irritated with me tying up the flight line with this old man. I tried to apologize and asked he try to be patience. The young man pressed and asked if I could even fly anything other than a trainer. I got mad, fired up the trainer and did a low inverted pass over the field with the trainer, we are talking the fin in the grass pass, whipped the thing around and knifed the thing less than a foot of the grass. The young man packed up and left. I proved that I was just as bad as some of those unhappy people. Moral of the story is we all have to give and take. I hope I can glean enough information about these gyro systems to do some good, and take away some good stuff.
Like always, Thank you all that share this great aviation hobby with others.
