Australian Press Association. (Received 12th March, 10 a.m.)
rm. a- , .L°NI>ON, 11th March. .mo Air Ministry is building a helicogyre, invented by an Italian named Isacco, an elaboration of Senor de la Cierva's autogyro with the difference that the horizontally rotating vanes, instead of being operated by hand on the ground like a spinning top, are driven .by small separate motors with tiny airscrews attached to vanes. It is thus expected that the aeroplane will rise almost vertically.
