EDITORS COMMENTS
This diagram from 1929 showcases the innovative and groundbreaking design of the Saunders Helicogyre, an experimental autogiro that challenged the conventional aviation norms of the time. The autogiro, a precursor to modern helicopters, was a remarkable invention that relied heavily on four slowly rotating wings, rather than fixed wings. These wings, also referred to as rotor blades, were propelled forward with the motion of the aeroplane itself. The Saunders Helicogyre was the brainchild of British inventor and engineer, Geoffrey de Havilland Saunders. This design, which was supported by the British Air Ministry, represented a significant departure from traditional fixed-wing aircraft. The autogiro's unique windmill-like rotor system allowed for vertical takeoff and landing capabilities, making it an intriguing alternative to the standard aeroplanes of the era. The 1920s, a decade marked by rapid technological advancements, saw the emergence of numerous aviation innovations. The Saunders Helicogyre, with its revolutionary design, was a testament to the ingenuity and ambition of the aviation industry during this period. Although the autogiro did not immediately lead to commercial success, it paved the way for future helicopter designs and contributed significantly to the development of rotorcraft technology. This intriguing diagram offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of early aviation history, showcasing the pioneering spirit and groundbreaking innovations that shaped the future of flight.
