OOOOOO OOOOOH!!!!
I know one at last!
This came up on a MOOC 'Futurelearn' course wot I dun, in a discussion regarding prejudice against monoplanes within the air ministries of the Allies despite demonstrated promising performance figures.
Loening M-8

Despite being a heavily armed 2 seater, it had a top speed of 145mph which was fast in 1918. Cancelled due to end of hostilities,

Yes Benno but what kind......

Remember, there are 4 choices as to who made this Autogyro.

Cierva
Pitcairn
Kellett
Or
Kayaba

Although for practical reasons, Kayaba should be roped in with Kellett.

Choose the correct manufacturer and YOU WIN!.

Have fun
