EXTREME Dominator Gyroplane Gyrocopter Flying

EXTREME Dominator Gyroplane Gyrocopter Flying

[@GTgyro]

It was fun to watch him fly at Barry Days. I was very surprised from talking with him to learn how few hours he has in gyros, although he has a lots of hours in FW. This was Matt Novotny's gyro, so he and I had that in common - we both own gyro's originally built and flown by Matt.

[@parisachilles2682]

Clearly someone who knows every parameter and tolerance of his gyro!

[@blackopssurgicalsniper6189]

Lonnie, glad to see the gyro flying. After I bought the gyro, I developed cardiac problems. and decided not to take any chances. I would have loved to fly that great little gyro. I enjoyed this video. Happy landings. Galen Hutcheson.

[@lonniebrown1730]

I bought this gyro from Matt N. in 2013. I removed his instrument pod and added the instruments, painted it olive drab green, put all of the Army decals on it and flew it 100hrs plus. It was fun to fly, but I wanted to go back to fixed wing aircraft, so I bought a Piper L-21B (Super Cub). I sold the Gyro to Galen Hutcheson the Snipper in Arkansas in 2018. He never flew it, so he sold it to, I guess Gerald. Good Luck with it, and be safe. They say that Gyro's won't stall, but loosing Rotor lift, or wing lift (on a fixed wing) to me is the same as a stall, believe me I know. Thanks, Lonnie Brown

Смотрел как Ковбои США (Я называю их Чабаны - на Кавказе пастухов так называют) - эти Чабаны - насилуют механизм почти на пределе. После таких полетов технику надо очень внимательно проверять перед полетом. У нас на Кавказе горячие парни так на автомобилях ездят. Смеюсь и потом продают автомобиль, так как автомобиль перестает нормально работать или появляется стук и скрипы. А внешние формы машины - она как новенькая. Они новую машину убивают за пару месяцев. Машина еще выглядит как новая, а внутри - внутри машины - полный ремонт срочно надо делать. Но внутрь лучше не заглядывать - просто вытащи мотор и несущие шестерни и выбрось. Работа на износ. Работа на пределе. Это катание? нет. это шоу, это цирк перед зрителями перед видеокамерой. Ради чего, убивают машину? Не ради катания. Любишь высоту? любишь полет? - Летай и наслаждайся. Но Чабаны США - это просто ломают и убивают технику. Почему? Потому, что они не понимают красоту и не получают удовольствие от возможности полета. - Потому что Чабаны США получают наслаждения от шоу, от цирка, от криков зрителей. Заметили разницу удовольствия и желаний? Заметили? Вот. Что пилот показал? за время полета? ничего ... просто цирк. не показал красоту полета, не показал природу, не показал как можно рядом и с интересом пролететь возле деревьев или гор или реки и успеть рассмотреть все... - не показал. Пилот резво сел в седло и ....Ехуууууууу..... вот и все. расходимся... эмоции первого уровня ... самые примитивные. Вы еще жвачку жуете? сплюнь как Ковбой. Когда говорят - Американцы - я сразу говорю это Чабаны, шоу, цирк, джинсы рваные жвачка... это и все. Плевать жвачку они умеют, лошадь загнать до смерти умеют ... Вы такие... Ковбои (Чабаны США). одно слово Пастухи ...

This is demonstrating pilot skill on a higher plane, no pun intended. Pilots skills are taught, but some individuals possess an instinctual grasp that allows them to become one with the machine, and do be able to do manoeuvres that are beyond the ability of most pilots. We are watching these abilities demonstrated in this video. Impressive and nice to watch.

I want to do this soo bad.... I would love a ride along, need to start looking for instructor near me.. Been retired for 3 years from LE, now that I'm on the mend from surgeries, I am READY. I am ready to live that dream life I've dreamt of... And I know this will bring me out of darkness that many of us experience... this pilot is incredibly talented. Thanks a million for the thrilling ride!

[@shawnwright5332]

@@jamescrabtree3469 just remember probably 95% gyro accidents/deaths is from lack of professional training!!!!!! Real average time of learning more around 50 hours keep that in mind some are less some are more it is what it is until your safe maybe it's 80-100 hours? Just keep that in mind when you budget

Who can I contact not too far from N Metro Atlanta area to schedule an introduction flight in a tandem gyro? Willing to travel in SE USA if necessary. Riding in an open cockpit gyro is on my short bucket list. Not getting any younger. I'm 210 lbs, and my gf might be 220. We would both like to take a turn with the pilot. . Are there any Gyro flying events scheduled this Fall in the SE?

I have my private pilots license but haven't flown since 2006. I would love to get into a center line of thrust gyro like the Dominator or Sparrowhawk III.

[@machoo666]

a very interesting fuel tank, where to buy one?

[@hadleymanmusic]

Why is the seat high on this design? I see its centered in the thrust line, does that help pendelum?

[@hadleymanmusic]

Damn! Watchin this ive Learned alot Ive only ever imagined.

[@GyroGerald]

Yes center thrust line is the ideal spot for a Gyroplane. If thrust line to high it could encourage push over

[@billwessels207]

Looking like a helicopter gunship in combat. Speaking from experience.

[@treywest268]

If this airport was closed so the abilities of this gyrocopter could be demonstrated and filmed, the why is there a fixed wing single engine taxing at the 4m37s mark?

[@GyroGerald]

No incoming flights allowed during flight or outgoing flights allowed. Ground taxing is allowed also might see some water trucks or mowers.

[@portnuefflyer]

That nose gear looks fragile as hell, but then, I'm a tail dragger pilot so all nose wheels look fragile.

[@GyroGerald]

Yeah I would agree on a plane but with a gyro it is very secure because there is little weight on the front end and on takeoff and landings most of the force touching he ground is on the rear tires and then that’s very little. Gyro landings might sometimes land hard on the rear tires but the last thing to touch is the front tire, and then it just falls down to level machine and allow it to taxi away etc.

[@jmerlo4119]

@Luka John - Thanks!

[@HELIPORTVIDEO]

Super!!!

[@michaelmartinez1345]

This guy seems to really like pushing it to the limit. Very aggressive maneuvers at super-low altitudes.... The modified engine on this craft seems to have a lot of power, but that requires a fairly large prop that rotates with a high relative thrust line, to enable clearance from the ground... A factor which can easily induce 'bunting-over' (Which is Almost Always Fatal) on this pusher - prop type of machine which has no horizontal stabilizer mounted a reasonable distance from the CG..... If he could get ahold of a nice Ducted Fan unit, that would enable a much lower thrust line, which would greatly reduce the tendency of the pitch-down moment that is being produced by the powered thrust unit, that is currently mounted on a shaft, that is this high up above the CG...... Hopefully, he lives long enough to be able to read this and maybe make some changes that could extend his life....

Taxi ways are still for taxiing right?

[@pettyfogger2305]

So the apparent new owner says the craft was damaged and chopped from a 2 place to a single AND the owner stated that he isn't interested in performance stuff, just putzing around the curcuit, right??? Adding all that info, serious caviats, a significant rebuild rejecting from the designer's work and the normal rules of gyro flight and gravity, why did the pilot wring the beans out of this craft and all the barnstorming? Great airmanship demo but I thought all the Kamakazees died by 1945.
