Richard, if you want to know anything about autogyros (and the Cierva in particular), suggest you try to contact Stephen Pitcairn, in Bryb Athyn, PA. His dad, Harold, designed and built the Pitcairn Mailwing, and started Pitcairn Aviation, which became Eastern Airlines. Anyway, Steve's dad became interested in the autogyro, obtained the U.S. license for the design, developed and patented several designs of his own, and, I believe, when he died owned more BASIC patents for rotor wing aircraft than the other designers combined. Stephen is big in EAA, so you might contact him through them.Ed________________________________________________________________________________

Richard, there is a scale model of the Cierva C.4 available from "AutogyroCompany of Arizona", 888-783-0101. $179, this is not a beginners machinefrom a flying standpoint. They also have plans and video.-----Original Message-----

Steve also owns the only flying PCA-2 left. The PCA-2 he owns, Miss Champion, wasowned by Champion Spark Plugs and set the world altitude record for autogyroaircraft back in the '30's. That record still stands today! He obtained MissChampion from Alec Miller, a good friend of my grandfater. Unfortunatly Alecpassed away a few years ago. The autogyro was stored in his barn in Vermont formany years, along with alec's collection of Stutz automobiles that were sold atauction shortly after his death.Ed0248(at)aol.com wrote:> Richard, if you want to know anything about autogyros (and the Cierva in> particular), suggest you try to contact Stephen Pitcairn, in Bryb Athyn, PA.> His dad, Harold, designed and built the Pitcairn Mailwing, and started> Pitcairn Aviation, which became Eastern Airlines.
