This web site is dedicated to my friend and former student Jim Terpstra. Jim passed away when a preventable mechanical failure occurred on his helicopter. His family asked me to share this problem and others with the community so that no other lives are tragically lost. This is for you my friend. Rest in peace- we miss you.

I would like to welcome you to my website and hope that you find the information contained herein both interesting and beneficial to you. Most of the stories and information relates to Rotorway helicopters because the vast percentage of my many flight and instructing hours have been attained in Rotorway helicopters.

The suggestions that I have made on this site are only that, suggestions. Each owner/builder must make his/her own decisions on the best way to build, maintain, and fly their Rotorway or other experimental helicopters. Any information that you use from this site is at your own risk as I have no control over who uses that information or how they interpret what I have stated on this site.

Please feel free to send me any comments or suggestions by email as we strive to build a web site that will be an asset to the experimental helicopter community.
