Description: The Fairey Rotodyne was a British compound gyroplane intended for commercial and military applications in the 1950s and early 1960s. A development of the earlier Gyrodyne prototypes which had established a number of British helicopter records, the Rotodyne featured a tip-jet-powered rotor that burned a mixture of fuel and compressed air bled from two wing-mounted Napier Eland turboprops. The rotor was used for vertical takeoffs, landings and hovering, while full power was applied to two propellers in forward flight. Although promising in concept and entirely successful in trials, the Rotodyne program was eventually cancelled when a combination of politics and the lack of commercial orders doomed the project.
