Helicopter on my Street

I was out pulling weeds when this thing came over the house a bit lower than I would expect. He then circled and landed just down the street. I had to run and get the shot so I did not get the tripod and had to hand hold. The passenger for the flight was to be a young girl that was kicked by a horse. They flew her to Primary Children's Hospital. They expected her to be ok.

My first helicopter lesson

It was a blast. I hope it continues to go well. I should be a commercial helicopter pilot this fall.

Building a Gyroplane

So to day I completed bonding the ribs and support tube into the vertical stabilizer. It looks like it will take the entire week to complete the tail of the gyro. Perhaps Monday I will join the H stab and the V stab.

This is the V stab. next I will bond the other skin in place and start the H stab.
