RE: Gyrocopter on the ocean!

I can remember magazines used to have small ads, where you could buy the plans to build your own Gyrocopter, designed to use a VW Beetle engine. I was always intrigued, but living in rural S Ga USA, with no airfields (at the time) would have been problematic, if I'm not mistaken, they still have to take off and land like an airplane, no VTOL capabilities.
Nice shots cuzzy @papilloncharity

Now that's what I am looking for cuzzy Jerry.
I would love to build my own one so I will start do do some research.
We have an airfield close by and I am friends with the manager. There are many hangars there and I am sure that I can source parts from there.
A new one is very expensive, so I will have to go the used way.
Cheers and !BEER

I haven't seen any ads like I mentioned in many years, but I feel sure it can be done, or they can be found.
I wish you luck, but also hope you will remain safe in your travels @papilloncharity
