Bob (bOB? , in the Pensacola neck of the woods there are about half a
dozen gyroplanes at the Brewton muni airport (about 50 miles north of PNS).

I come by this knowledge from passing within a few miles of Brewton last

was so easy I couldn't possibly get hurt. I sold it. But I can always
keep hoping.
