boB in one of your earlier posts you asked if there was someplace to go
and
see all the small helicopters. There are two major gatherings for the
experimental helicopters. Homer Bell's in Hillsboror Ohio in July and
John
Spurling;s in Cleveland Ok. in October. Both are a must for people
interested in the experimental helo community.. We go every year even tho
it is a long trailer ride for us from Calif. But we produce the
Experimental Helo magazine and both those shows are and absolute must for
us. Great people and great event. Usually some 30-40 helos show up at
Homer's and Spurling's attendance is growing but has been in the high 20's
recently. We can provide detailed directions if you are interested.

Anyone ever let someone try out their Helicycle at one of these
events??


Would you?

The only people I would "even" consider letting do that is someone that I'd
known for a "very" long time and had "absolute" confidence in. Having said
that, the two people I know from my active aviation days that fall into that
category probably wouldn't ask, even if they were fully rated and qualified.

Come to think of it, there is one person I'd let fly my Helicycle if I had
one. That would be B.J. Schramm, but there's only one problem with
that.......... ;-)
