SPARROWHAWK TO DEBUT AT MENTONE & OSHKOSH GBAís American Autogyro Inc. subsidiary will debut the prototype of its new gyroplane product line this summer at the annual conventions of both the Popular Rotorcraft Association at Mentone, Indiana, and the Experimental Aircraft Association at Oshkosh, Wisconsin. "This will be the first public showing of this amazing aircraft. Even though we have not yet begun our advertising campaign, we already have fully paid orders on nearly 20 SparrowHawk Gyroplanes which we expect will begin being delivered this year, and we have been delivering stabilization upgrade kits of our design, since the beginning of April of this year," says James P. Mayfield, AAI president and originator of the AAI product line. In addition to exhibiting at AirVenture, AAI will have SparrowHawk prototypes flying daily at the Fond du Lac airport a few miles south of Oshkosh. Introductory lessons will be available for $45 at both Mentone & Fond du Lac. We invite all who are attending these two events to visit us and take advantage of an opportunity to fly in one of our SparrowHawk prototypes.

GBAíS HEAVY LIFT GYRODYNE CONCEPT IN THE NEWS GBAís offer of a gyroplane solution to meet the US Armyís need for a vertical take-off and landing heavy lift transport (as reported in our last issue) has garnered much attention in many of the worldís top aviation magazines including: Aviation Week & Space Technology, Air International, Defense & Public Service Helicopter, Flight International and New Scientist. GBAís proposal would modify a Lockheed Martin C-130 by equipping it with a GBA designed rotor system incorporating rotor-mounted tip-jets. GBAís concept is in response to a Department of Defense study contract announced last year to examine different concepts for meeting the Armyís need for an Advanced Maneuver Transport (AMT).
