Wauchula Welcomes Rotorheads

摘要

Days fly-in, held in Wauchula, Florida, and sponsored by the Sun State Wing and Rotor Club, honors Igor Bensen, father of the personal gyroplane, who in 1962 founded the Popular Rotorcraft Association. The PRA now represents 1,600 gyroplane owners, pilots, and enthusiasts across the globe, and plenty of them trailered their craft, stuffed them in pickup trucks, strapped them to cars, or even flew them to the 39th Bensen Days gathering last March. Bensen Days also welcomes powered rotorcraft, parachutes, and paragliders.
