History:

Very little is known about this machine other than it was a single-seat gyrocopter of fibreglass construction with a three blade rotor and fitted with a tricycle undercarriage and twin booms carrying the tail. It is not known if it ever was flown and was first noted at Wodonga in the 1980s when it was part of the Drage Aviation Museum at Wodonga, VIC, later appearing at the Wangaratta Air World Museum, VIC when the former was transferred there. It was still at the Museum at Wangaratta in April 1998 but its ultimate fate after the latter museum closed and the aircraft in the latter were sold is not known.
