A New Type Of Helicopter

An artist's impression of the "Rotodyne", a new design in helicopters that has won a British Ministry of Supply contract for the Fairey Aviation Company. Powered by two Napler Eland propeller-turbines, the machine will use the Fairey patented system of tip driven jet rotors. It has been designed around the power and size that could meet the requirements of B.E.A. for a large inter-city "Rotor-Coach". The machine-which will be a fifty seator—is designed to be the fastest helicopter in the world and will have wings, propellers, tailplanes, fins and even rudders.—London Express.
