Dive into the thrilling world of aviation history with the Cierva Autogiro, a pioneering aircraft that revolutionized rotary-wing flight in the early 20th century. Born from the genius of Spanish engineer Juan de la Cierva, the Autogiro was not a helicopter but an autogyro, using an unpowered rotor in autorotation to develop lift, and an engine-powered propeller to provide thrust. Operational from the 1920s, these machines were the forefathers of modern gyrocopters and played a crucial role in advancing rotorcraft technology. They captured the imagination of the public and military alike, showcasing incredible feats such as short takeoff and landing capabilities. The Cierva Autogiros were used for a variety of purposes, including mail delivery, military reconnaissance, and even early air traffic control experiments. Their legacy is a testament to innovation and the adventurous spirit of early aviation pioneers.
