Autogyro
An autogyro is a type of rotorcraft invented by Juan de la Cierva in 1919, making its first successful flight on January 91923 at Cuatro Vientos Airfield in Madrid, Spain. The lift for an autogyro is provided by a rotor, similar to that of a helicopter. Unlike a helicopter, the rotor of an autogyro is driven by aerodynamic forces alone, once it is in flight. Thrust for the autogyro is provided by an engine-powered propeller similar to that of a fixed-wing aircraft.
