There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
My other passion!

Do you do that???? That is insanely cool!
The president of our company has a stunt pilot's license and I hear he does that with the fixed wings and helicopters. Well used to - I don't think the parent company lets him do it anymore.
He used to raffle off stunt rides with him for our charity silent auctions - I have heard of puking stories. I would puke for sure!

That just made my day, thanks for posting it, I will revisit this often as it bought back so many memories that I have. In 1980 (yes I know its a long while back but) I flew/demonstrated a small air craft, a cross between an ultralight and a experimental at Oskosh for the week and to be in the air looking down at the hundreds of wonderful aircraft and amazing pilots was breathtaking. Our ten minute timeslot each day was one of the best experences I have ever had and this video bought back all of the feeling I had for flying. I have been unable to continue to fly for some time and have not done so for many many years but it still remains a passion within me and this as I said has just made my day.
I will go out today on :spyder:and be thinking of the video as :spyder:has also made a difference in my life another truly great experience, and after all my small experimental also had three wheels.

By any chance, was it a Hollmann Bumblebee gyroplane?

NO, but I would have like to have flown one, my 'ride' so to speak was a high wing canard and also powered at that time by a two cylinder Rotec two cycle engine, as with most of BRP's engines very high revs but the two cycle had little torque at low revs. This engine is still used today in many experimentals and was used as it was very light (about 40lbs) and in an experimental weight, or the lack of it helps a bunch.
