Will gyro experience xfer to helocopter?
Howdy group,
I just got my private pilot certicate (for airplanes) last week and I'll soon be starting on my gyrocopter certificate. (Actually I've already got 16 hours of dual logged in a gyro, and by next spring I plan to have a two place gyro of my own.) My question is this: Will experience a gyrocopter transfer or help in learning to fly a helicopter? Or will it be a hindrance due to different learned reflexes? I'd like to hear from those pilots who fly both gyros and helos. |
