Bill and all,

Yes, the Sept Flyin will be at Morris, IL on the 7th, 8th, and 9th. I'll be posting a map and more details on my website in a couple of months.

There's a cruise night scheduled for Saturday night in downtown Morris, too. All kinds of hot rods and custom cars show up for anyone interested in that.

Please set that weekend aside for attending the 12th Annual Gyronuts Flyin. Should be AWESOME!

Dave,
Sorry you will not be able to make this years Autogyro meet.. WE were all wanting to meet you and see your Autogyro's up close, and see them fly. Besides doing a lot of talking thats what we do. Fly and look. Maybe some of your designs will be there. Hope so.

I am pretty sure Ben Hinson will be there with his. Words cant explain how much I will miss this chance to go. I had time off from work...had my hotel room....life just throws you a curve ball and you just have to go with it. Next year, I will try to make it again....

I would think that the Boys from TN.( PT-25's, etc) and AeroBalsa will be there. Not sure if Mickey will have anything there or A of A. I may bring a few parts or have lots of parts after I fly a few Autogyro's.

My wife and I will be going North in a few weeks so I was looking to see what Autogyro's I will take with us.Hope I have room for all. I plan on a Giant Scale Warbird in Muncie and some other fly-ins in between before we come back to Florida in Oct.
Here is a Family photo.. 4 glow and 4 Electric. Whistler's Cousin, 2 PT-25's, PT Profile, ACDC, 2 GT 17's, and a BEGI.
I should have at least 2 to fly each day of the Morris, IL Autogyro Fly-in in September 7-8-9

I will be there with plenty of blades, and Greg Thomas of Flying Balsa will be there with his and John Selph's line of PT Gyro kits.

It's gonna be a good one!
