Norman Surplus will continue his attempt to be the first person to fly a gyrocopter around the world after his recent forced landing in a shallow lake in Thailand. The MT-03 came to rest inverted in shallow water and was recovered within an hour. Norman estimates that he’ll be able to head off again after repairs which should take about a month.
Norman has so far completed 7,550 miles and the next phase of the flight will cover approximately 18,000 miles. <a href=”http://www.gyroxgoesglobal.com/”>Click here for more</a>
