EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the groundbreaking innovation of Etienne Ohemichen's experimental helicopter from the year 1921. Long before the helicopter became a common mode of transportation or military asset, Ohemichen, a visionary inventor, dared to dream and create. The image reveals the intricate details of his ingenious design, with its large, paddle-like rotors and open-cockpit seating for the pilot. The helicopter's robust framework, made primarily of wood and fabric, displays the engineering prowess of the era. The rotors, powered by a single engine located at the rear, were controlled by the pilot through a complex system of cables and pulleys. Ohemichen's helicopter, a precursor to modern rotorcraft, was the first successful attempt at creating a flying machine that could hover in place and take off and land vertically. This remarkable achievement paved the way for further advancements in helicopter technology, leading to the development of more sophisticated and capable aircraft. Despite the numerous challenges Ohemichen faced during his experimental flights, including engine failures and control issues, his determination and perseverance led to several successful hovers and short flights. This photograph serves as a testament to the ingenuity and courage of Etienne Ohemichen and his groundbreaking work in the field of helicopter aviation.
