Air Command has new owner

Harold Smith sold Air Command International, one of the oldest gyroplane kit manufacturers, to Joe Covelli. According to Joe, “We look forward to continuing Air Command's great traditional and strong reputation in manufacturing production gyroplane kits and parts to customers worldwide”. The company's headquarters will remain in the United States, but moved from Texas to Wisconsin.

A Word of Caution

Never fly a gyroplane without proper instruction from a certified gyroplane flight instructor. Do not attempt maneuvers beyond your capability or those of the gyroplane. Doing so could lead to a personal injury event or even death.

About Skywheels

Skywheels quickly became the leading rotor blade system for kit-built gyroplanes. From 1985 until 2001, over 3,000 blade sets were delivered. In 2001, Skywheels was sold and for two-years made rotors and then went dormant.

In 2018, Skywheels, LLC, acquired the original tooling to again manufacture 23- to 31-foot rotor blade sets.

The proven composite rotor system is designed to exceed requirements of FAA Regulation Part 27 for normal category rotorcraft. > Click for more information.
