The Hawk 5 Gyroplane. Runway independent operations with class leading payload. The Hawk 5 combines the safety, reliability and cost effectiveness of fixed wing aircraft with the runway independence of a helicopter.
Runway independent operations. Utilizing a pre-rotation system while the aircraft is on the ground, the Hawk 5 is capable of runway independent take-offs.
Unsurpassed Safety. With a rotor that is always in autorotation, in the unlikely event of a complete engine failure, the Hawk 5’s autorotating rotor continues to rotate, keeping the pilot in complete control to safely land.
Economical Workhorse. With no powered rotor in flight and no transmission and no antitorque equipment, the Hawk 5 also has none of the periodic maintenance or lost business days associated with these systems, leaving the owner with lower costs and higher reliability. Coupled with the flying simplicity of fixed wing aircraft, the Hawk 5 can be the workhorse you have been looking for.
