A Field Guide To Migratory LSAs: The Gyros

Who Had LSA's at the Sport Pilot Expo?

Here's a guide to who the exhibitors were at Sebring this week. We started with the ones the Expo listed and added the ones that we personally saw and spoke with that weren't on the list. One exhibitor at least (Titan) couldn't make the new dates.

We use the same categories as we did in our report on Day 2: Reborn Legends, Young Turks, Legacy Kits, Trikes, Gyros, and Powered Parachutes.

Here's The Gyros...
American Autogyro Inc. / Groen Brothers

The reason the AAI Sparrowhawk stands up on its legs, like that, is in order to get the thrust line of the powerplant to run through the vertical center of gravity -- making the machine more stable and safer than high-thrustline gyros. There's little to no pitch-coupling to power.

Rotary AirForce Marketing, Inc.

The popular Canadian gyroplane was ably represented here by longtime Alabama/NW Florida based dealer, and gyro CFI, Dofin Fritts. The RAF website is freshly overhauled and includes a convenient configurator that lets you estimate the cost of an RAF 2000 with most popular options.

Well, that's it! If you were at the show, exhibiting, and somehow we missed you, drop us a line (editor@aero-news.net) and we'll update this listing, which we expect will be perennially popular.

If you want to attend next year's US Sport Aviation Expo, it'll be in January again, from the 11th to the 14th of January 2007, and we'll see you there! (Note that the website hasn't been updated yet. It will be in due course).
