The latest arrival will be a striking orange in colour and a real eye catcher both in the air and on the ground.

Dean has already logged a considerable number of hours in a short time as an MTO Sport pilot and is busting to do his conversion training and start exploring this great land from the air with partner Jenny.

Cavalon has lived up to its media hype and all that have seen it first hand are absolutely impressed by its finish, generous cabin area, stability and performance. As a sneak preview, we have included a pic taken at the factory of an identically coloured machine to Dean’s.

If Cavalon is your kind of aircraft then give Hunter Jones a call on 0412 048 679 for more information.

The day was quite a warm one with medium thermal activity developing so take note of the stability of the gyro during all phases of the flight!

Please note that the low flying sequences in this video were filmed over our SkyRanch facility under controlled conditions and they ably demonstrate the capability of Cavalon.

The scenery of Lake Keepit and surrounds is pretty good too. This area of Australia is an aviators paradise due to its excellent year round weather, lack of traffic and plenty of places to visit .

As with previous videos, sit back, turn up the volume (the music is great) and view in full screen mode. To view click here.

Dean has been training with our instructor Neil Farr (that’s Dean on the right) and has now got the gyro grin permanantly attached.

Dean is also an avid (Jenny might say obsessive) fisherman so we won’t be surprised if he combines the benefits of his newly ordered Cavalon with seeking out new fishing spots!

Look out for Dean and his ornge Cavalon at flyins and gyro outings. Again, congratulations Dean.

Over 70 people were at our SkyRanch facility on the day to see Cavalon up very close for the first time and many were able to sample its impecable flight characteristics first hand.

A number of MTO 3, MTO Sport and Calidus owners flew in specially for the occasion and if the smiles were any indication, the Cavalon definitely delighted them. The main comment was on how smooth and easy to fly the Cavalon was.

The aircraft pictured is our demonstrator respendanyt in its liquid chrome paint livery and as a result of the launch we have a very happy customer who ordered their Cavolon immediately after their demonstration flight.

You can see a neat video of a Cavalon flight on the day that shows off Cavalon and Lake Keepit here.

 As a result of follow ups since the launch we anticipate that we will confirm orders for another three aircraft in the coming weeks which only confirms the status that this great aircraft already has around the world. 

Willi Ewig was on hand fresh from the AutoGyro factory to give all in attendance a run down on the design process and the background on the development and ultimate manufacture of this, the latest in state of the art gyro design followed by a very impressive demonstration of Cavalon in the air.

In Cavalon, the German manufacturer has raised the bar on gyro design to such an extent through design innovation, quality of finish and performance it will be some time before it will be seriously challenged in the marketplace.

Look out for Cavalon at airshows and flyins and be sure to come and say hello. In the meantime, check out the Cavolon page and the Cavolon photo gallery for more information and images.

It is easy to see in this video why gyro is definitely a practical and cost effective alternative to a helicopter so click here and be amazed!

AutoGyro Russia were the first of the world wide network of Distribution Partners to get their Cavalon demonstrator and we are eagerly awaiting arrival of ours a little later this year.

At AutoGyro Australia, we are getting strong interest in Cavalon even prior to the arrival of the demonstrator and at this stage the first customer shipment looks like being three aircraft. If Cavalon is for you then contact Hunter Jones on 0412 048 679 to discuss your requirements and our introductory offer for the first five customers.

The words may be Russian but as the old saying goes – a picture tells a thousand words so click here , sit back and enjoy 12 minutes of great gyro flying in Russia.

A collaboration between the Aero Club and Billabong Aviation, the weekend is all about sampling recreational flying in all its forms and we will have both the MTO Sport and Calidus flying and have already taken a number of bookings for both aircraft.

If you are gyro interested, why not drop in and see us over the weekend to take a Trial Instructional Flight. There is a lot of interest so prebooking is a good idea to ensure that you are guaranteed a flight. Contact Hunter Jones on 0412 048 679 to make your booking.

Of course all MTO owners are welcome to call in and visit us over the weekend as well – the more gyros the better we say!

See you there!

Graham started his training with our Victorian instructor Peter Pendergast and has completed his training with us here at SkyRanch with instructor Neil Farr to fit in with Graham’s business committments .

Our CFI Paul Mitchell evaluated Graham’s skills and was very happy with Graham’s level of proficiency and ultimately sent Graham for his first solo. We think the photos say it all!

Graham will now put his newly acquired skills to very good use in his Nutrisoil biological farming fertilisers business where he will use his MTO Sport to inspect and photograph crops and field trials. Previously Graham has done this work in a trike but recognised the benefit that gyro offered in increase available flying hours daily.

This flyin is a must for anyone who travels xcountry in their gyro or any other aircraft for that mattter. The variety was great and the comraderie around the brekkie on Sunday morning very enjoyable with the locals also very welcoming and hospitable.

The trip up was great and the scenery unreal in that it varied from the hilly country around Manilla and areas to its North to the rich flats of the Lockyer Valley.

The cruising economy of both the MTO Sport and Calidus came to the fore yet again and saw us arrive in good time with a planned stop at Inglewood for a break and  a splash of fuel.

Official head count for the event was 54 aircraft – now that’s a flyin. We had quite a bit of interest in both aircraft from visitors and high time pilots and especially from a couple of air park residents who immediately picked up on the features of gyro aircraft. MTO 3 owner Ivor Harper came over from Caboulture to catch up with us and finished up taking a front seat ride in Calidus.

We have included a few photos of the event which include an aerial shot of the Airpark, the MTO Sport and Calidus in transit at Warialda and local girl Bree Kirwin who took in the sites of the local area in Calidus with our instructor Neil Farr.

After rain all night on Sunday we weren’t certain that we would get out on Monday morning but we were greeted with a beautiful morning and a great trip home.

For all you intrepid travellers make the Gatton Brekkie Flyin a must do!

A big thanks to  the Air Park community and especially Martin Hone for the warm welcome and hospitality – we will be back!

On its way to Moscow and another Trade Fair - Helirussia from May 19th-21st 2011, the Russian distributor of AutoGyro aircraft is eagerly awaiting the arrival of his new aircraft, the first of the production to roll out.

With the production line now in full swing many will follow – not only to Russia, but to distributors all over the world. The interest shown at Aero 2011 indicates a very busy time for all as the interest generated has surpassed all expectations which is not surprising given Cavalon’s outstanding performance.

At AutoGyro Australia we are expecting our demonstarator in late August and already we have a number of very interested people excitedly awaiting its arrival. Even at this early stage these potential clients are already looking to secure production slotsto ensure delivery later in the year.
