Built in the 1960s this was one of 18 examples built for the German military. It was tethered allowing the aircraft to rise to about 2 feet (600mm), to turn on a vertical axis and to tip forwards and backwards about 6 degrees. The instructor sat outside the main body making this a cheap way to teach very basic flying.

Built in 1931 this is believed to be the worlds oldest surviving helicopter. The design goes back to 1928, when Raoul Hafner first had his ideas for a helicopter at the Technische Hochschule in Vienna. In flight it was unstable and it only made a few short hops

Built in 1957, the Bellairus was a luxury version of the Bell 47 with an interior of a similar standard to a high quality car of the period. This example was operated by Sabena in support of Belgian Antarctic surveys between 1957 and 1961. It was operated by Ostermans Aero AB as SE-HBE from 1963-70 and by a private owner as LN-OQG from 1970-72. It became G-AZYB in 1972 and was cancelled as destroyed in 1985 but has been rebuilt for display purposes.
