Flew over our local Kubota dealer's shop last Sunday while they were closed.

Quite a bit of <font color="red">ORANGE </font> apparent down below, including many crated rigs ready for assembly.

Sure does not look like any slowdown in business to me! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

It's a little two seater GyroCopter with a 110hp Suburu horizontally opposed four banger, ceiling is 11,000 feet and top speed @ 120 but good to cruise @ 80 mph.

A kewl new way to go shopping? Making sure the dealer isn't hiding something out back?

Neat!

Very cool! I did some backhoe work this summer for a bud who has both a powered parachute and a fixed wing ultralight. We talked about a ride as payment, just haven't had time since then. Looks like a lot of fun /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Here is a view of the 880 acre farm from the air @ 2,000 feet with a 15mm fisheye lens.

Here is another of the farm, if you look close you can see 175 bovines grazing and about twice as many 10 foot alligators.

Lat week, about 500 Sandhill Cranes arrived, although last year at this time we had over 1,500. Also, the Mallards, Green & Blue Wing Teal, Wood Ducks, Widgeon, PinTail, Woodcock, and Snipe have arrived too.
