I know has suddenly got the autogyro (gyroplane) bug, sold his aircraft and bought a nice shiny new autogyro. He is well into training for it. I queried the atrocious accident rate with him and was informed;the early ones were dangerous because they lacked a horizontal stabiliser, POI caught people out. My one doesn't suffer from this.Not being overly convinced I just thought I would see what G-INFO has to add to this.Interesting.One of the modern, safe, two seat machines popular in the UK has one sixth (the same rate as Russian Roulette with a revolver!) of the UK fleet de-registered due to "aircraft destroyed". A couple of the other types fair a little better but not much.Does any one know if there any other sport aviation machines with an accident record that bad?
Please help.
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
