Taking it to the skies

I will be taking it to the skies was the comment made by a well known Gyrocopter owner & pilot.

Gyrocopters are not your everyday flying machine but they have a strong international sub culture who have ozone for blood. It was August 2017 and this fellow had heard about our Products from word of mouth recommendation so he came looking for us at our secret test hideout.  we of course asked him how he managed to find us. He said we were not so hard to find.

He wanted to protect his recently completed canopy version gyro which was fitted with a LS1 chevy engine and carbon fibre propulsion blade. This is the Hypercar of the Gyrocopter world with a big investment so it needed to be kept in perfect condition

So we of course said yes we will do it and planned a time to meet at the airstrip, which was a good hour drive away. On getting there we found all sorts of flying machines which was fascinating to walk around and check them out.

This blog will run for 12 months as we track the quality of the work carried out and the how the owner felt NDG coatings performed over the 12 months.

Right,  what are we there for: To look at what products we would apply to this machine. 

The windscreen we decided on shield 120

The Blades we would use our champion product that is our special tool Hyperseal.

We set up and got started. The paintwork had recently been applied so no significant paint corrections were needed.

Just as we finished the wind started to pickup so the owner quickly got into his flying machine and took to the skies.

On returning he commented on the clarity of the visuals of the windscreen and the smooth feel to the canopy and was very happy with the whole process. So we shook hands and scheduled to return in August 2018.

Taking it to the skies

August 2018

12 months have passed since we had seen the Gyrocopter and we headed out to the Airstrip to take a look and have a chat to the owner.

On arriving we found that there was a new, larger hanger to house the Gyro so he still had it and not felt compelled to sell it during this time

The gyro looked the same as when we had coated it. 

The owner said he was very pleased with NDG products and he recommends it to anyone he meets as to him we had ticked all his wants and needs boxes and his expectations were met.

He says that the bug/insects are much easier to clean off the windshields and that all he needs to do is wipe the whole machine with a clean cloth and it looks good as new.
