An autogyro, also known as gyroplane, gyrocopter, or rotaplane, is a type of rotorcraft which uses an unpowered rotor in autorotation to develop lift, and an engine-powered propeller, similar to that of a fixed-wing aircraft, to provide thrust.
Are you tired of crawling your way through heavy traffic? Of course you are. All of us are. Now, if you're swimming in cash, maybe it's time to consider a mode of transport that's literally higher than the traditional car. We're talking about the Autogyro, a German-made rotorcraft now distributed in the Philippines by now available by Aviation Classifieds , which offers sales, maintenance, training and licensing of the product via the Manuafctuer.
According to AutoGyro, the Autogyro is "the safest and most dynamic aircraft in the market today." Powered by a four-stroke, 115hp Rotax turbo engine built by Bombardier in Austria, it has a cruising speed of 160kph, a top speed of185kph, and a maximum range of 1,000km. Air Geo claims it offers the following benefits:
* no stalling;
* no tailspin;
* minimum takeoff distance;
* no landing distance required;
* adaptability to strong winds and turbulence;
* just 10% of the acquisition and maintenance costs of a helicopter; and
* uses regular unleaded fuel
To obtain a license to operate the thing, you need to complete a 40-hour course. Autogyro units have been turned over to the the distributor Now in CEBU, for the training courses.
Call David at 09173116835 to see one first hand in person and maybe even take a trial flight.
The Autogyro has several models as shown in our photos . The enclosed-cockpit Calidus, while the model used in the video below is the bigger and open-cockpit MTO Sport. Both are two-seater gyrocopters as far as we can tell, with the passenger seated behind the pilot.
So, if you want a brand-new Autogyro starts at $105,000 (P4.20 million), including taxes and import duties--and don't suffer from acrophobia, you might want to give Aviation Classifieds a call at
