Thanks, Bob; any idea whether he's still flying it? That's not the name I recall, but I'm not surprised that there's more than one gyro guy  using the rotary. The guy I'm thinking about had, IIRC, over 1500 hrs on his, and it might have been a 12A instead of a 13B.

While while wandering the interwebs trying to find the name of the guy who's been flying a rotary on a gyro for several decades, I stumbled upon this site; thought some of us might be interested in the aviation history of the Wankel that's discussed. A quick scan didn't reveal anything 'new', but there is a lot of stuff I haven't seen compiled in one location before. (And the inevitable handful of errors, of course...)
