EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the extraordinary Cordy Mobilopter, an unusual aviation design by Harry Cordy, captured in 1931. The image, taken in Monte, California, USA, presents an exterior view of the aircraft, revealing its distinctive rotary wing design that sets it apart from conventional fixed-wing aircraft. The Cordy Mobilopter, with its rotary wings, can be considered an early precursor to modern helicopters. Harry Cordy, an innovative aviation pioneer, envisioned a new way to fly, merging the principles of both airplanes and helicopters. The Cordy Mobilopter's design featured a fuselage reminiscent of an airplane, yet its wings rotated like helicopter blades, providing both lift and thrust. This unique configuration aimed to offer the maneuverability and vertical takeoff and landing capabilities of helicopters, combined with the speed and efficiency of airplanes. Despite its intriguing design, the Cordy Mobilopter did not gain widespread popularity or commercial success during its time. Nonetheless, it remains an important part of aviation history, representing a bold and visionary step towards the development of rotary-wing aircraft. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the ingenuity and curiosity that drove pioneers like Harry Cordy to push the boundaries of what was possible in flight.
