    Hey Stan, Why not hook up a tank, and tubes with holes on that rig and charge all those farmers for a little crop dustin to help pay for your fuel?

      Bob:    Hey...first all...nice hearing from you.  I miss your beautiful decks you posted.  Hows the business going?

       

      You can spray with my gyrocopter...but I cant do it for hire. Its licensed Experimental and I cannot charge for any services except letting someone pay for fuel.

        So what's the problem? Just charge them a lot for the fuel.

    Hi, Stan!  Lookin good!

    Are you prepared to deal with geese?  We've got major flocks of Canada and snows coming through right now, where we are.

      "watching out for the geese" brought to mind that...it'd be a great way to do some deer scouting too!
