Rotorbyte Ultralight Gyroplane Site

Retiring!

After almost 15 continuous years on-line, the site is finally being retired! The site was the first on-line resource for gyroplanes, but now there are many sites and the overall environment has been profoundly changed with the advent of Sport Pilot. For general information, there is no better place to start than the Rotary Forum and the Popular Rotorcraft Association web-site.

For those interested in Gyrobee documentation and construction, there is a huge on-line builder's community on the Rotary Forum and the documentation package continues to be available from StarBee Gyros, not to mention the potential for per-to-peer file sharing. The original Bumble Bee plans are also available from  Aircraft Designs.

I still intend to be active in ultralight aviation, gyroplanes, and the Forum, but at this point, between my age and my job, I cannot afford the constant effort to keep the site (over 1500 files!) current. Everybody build and fly safely....it has certainly been fun to provide this service, but everything comes to an end at some point!

Much of the Gyrobee information that was on this site can still be accessed at http://www.thegyrobee.com.
