Several autogyros were built by different manufacturers in the UK. The C.24 was the de Havilland version and was in fact the only rotorcraft ever produced by the company, It was built in secret at Hatfield and first flown by Juan de la Cierva himself at Stag Lane in 1931. The frame was acquired by the Science Museum in 1974 and is on loan to the Centre.

This Vampire was originally delivered to the RNAF in 1952 as a Mk.55. After being transferred to the RAF, it was converted into a T.11 and TOC in January 1959. After retirement, the plane went first to Brooklands College in February 1971 and then to the DAHC in March 1994. It is preserved in its Central Air Traffic Control School (CATCS) markings whilst based at RAF Shawbury.

This 3B was originally delivered to BEA in March 1972 and in April 1974 merged into the British Airways fleet. The frame was wfu at Heathrow (EGLL) October 1985 and scrappedin June the following year. The nose/cockpit section was originally preserved at the Manchester Museum of Science & Technology, but after deciding that they didn't like aircraft the nose was re-located to the DAHC in February 2022.

This was the third DH125 but was the first to be completed at the Chester factory. It was also the first to be built to the Series 1 production standard, as the first two aircraft completed at Hatfield were essentially prototypes. G-ARYC first flew in February 1963 and began its career five months later with Bristol Siddeley, being used to test and develop the relatively new Viper 520 Series engine. Later, when Bristol Siddeley became part of Rolls Royce, it flew as a communications aircraft between Filton and Toulouse for the Concorde Olympus 593 engine program.

This was the 30th Comet built, having been ordered as G-AMXH for BOAC. When that order was cancelled, the fuselage was strengthened and the aircraft taken over by the RAF in 1956 as a C.Mk.2 with 216 sqn. It was later modified for radio signals duties as a Mk.2R, at Hatfield and by Marshall's of Cambridge, going on to fly ELINT flights along the borders of the Warsaw Pact until superceded by Nimrod R.1s. The plane was retired to IWM Duxford in 1975 with 8,236 flying hours in over 3,200 flights but due to excessive corrosion, it was dismantled in 1992 and the nose donated to the DHAHC.

This Comet first flew in May 1953 and delivered to Air France. In April 1954 the Comet's Certificate of Airworthiness was revoked and the type grounded. This plane was returned to the UK in June 1956 using the registration G-AOJT and it became the back up airframe for the pressure tests carried out in a water tank at RAE Farnborough. In the end it was not required and so remained cocooned until it was acquired by the museum in 1985. This fuselage is the only surviving Comet to have the original square windows and is, therefore, extremely significant.

The Hornet Moth was designed in 1934 as a potential replacement for the highly successful Tiger Moth trainer but there was no interest from the RAF and the aircraft was put into production for private buyers with some 164 frames produced. This example was built at Hatfield in 1935 as the last D.H. 87A and first flown by Geoffrey de Havilland himself. It was later converted to D.H. 87B type with the rectangular wings and is on display at this very interesting museum.
