As an architect, I love to design. During the week I design buildings and on the weekends I design, build and fly small helicopters and gyroplanes. I recently designed and constructed a somewhat unique gyrocopter. It is a single place experimental aircraft with an 100 hp four cylinder, four cycle engine, 27 foot diameter rotor, three bladed 68" prop, total weight of 805 pounds (with pilot and full fuel), which will cruise comfortably at 75 mph (speed range 35 to 95 mph). To learn more about this unique aircraft click on the underlined pages above. Ken Rehler (N100KR, PRA 17413, EAA 275908, Rehler Vaughn & Koone, Inc.)
