“Wing Motors to Improve AUTOGYRO”
Modern Mechanics & Inventions, Jan 1930
‘RECENT successes of Juan de la Cierva’s Autogyro airplane have directed the attention of aeronautical engineers to the possibilities of improving this type of machine ➡️
#OTD in 1923: #AUTOGYRO!
Developed by Spanish engineer Juan de la Cierva as an aircraft that could fly safely at slow speeds & land safely in case of engine failure, ‘the autogyro was first flown on 9 January 1923, at Cuatro Vientos Airfield in Madrid.’

Hey guys ! I decided to do a short video to talk about my transition from Fixed-Wing aircraft to my AutoGyro Cavalon. Let's just say, I am not going back anytime soon :-) #AutoGyro #Flying #Gyrocopter #Rotax916is

Four obscure arcade games covered here by @bloggospow.bsky.social and there may be some "Autogyro" mentioned along the way.

Hey guys, I received in comments a workaround to avoid the over RPM issue I had for the first flight of the day in my AutoGyro Cavalon with Rotax 916. In the run-up. You can see it at the beginning of my last video. #Autogyro #Cavalon #Rotax #916is

And a little close-up on the dramatis personae. The autogyro was modelled after a Cierva C. 30/Avro Rota I from 1934, only with a slightly more powerful 9-cylinder engine.

Lani piloting the Wantael Island Coast Guards fiery red and gold autogyro a few hundred feet above ground and still going up, with Taray in the passenger seat. The roecoon's in fact doing a little stunt, pulling the control column with his hooves to scare the genet who's realizing (but a bit too late) that tree kitty ≠ air kitty.
Well this surprised me but I actually never reposted that autogyro piece here. So, here it is!
