Question, is it an open round or did mexchiva have the correct answer?  Also, has anyone seen or heard from James, he hasn't been around for awhile? Just curious.

I'm terribly sorry about this quest which turned about to be unresolvable. Consider it as open round-
(Havent't heard about James for quite some time, but I know he flew with the Clowns at the weekend.)

Sniperton - you should be sorry.  You know how we like our challenges to be dumbed-down around here, and hate learning about new aircraft!

Sorry guys, but why didn't you ask for further hints? It was a damn difficult quest.

And I congratulate you, mexchiva, your amusing little story is not that far from the truth.

Thank you for the LINKS Sniperton. There are many cool photos in there I never seen before.
New skin paint-schemes I can try on our airplanes that we already have.
Great Post!

Had to be French.  :)  A good place to look for choppers is here...

And looking at the French section I'd go with the Dorand GII (G 20) Gyroplane...

Isn't that the plane with that gust stabilization system?
Always thought it'd have gear covers. Anyway... Rey R-1 would be my guess then ("Rey" actually is "Société des Avions François Rey" in that case).
Wiki has it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rey_R.1
