Not like this, at least that I’ve seen lately. Co-axial rotors yes, but a pusher prop in the rear, rather than the regular tail rotor? Uh-uh. This looks like some of the new ideas comming from Micro R/C Helicopter designers.

I’d like to see this with outriggers for weapons. Lookout Airwolf!

What those antiquarians over at Sikorsky are doing is channeling Juan de la Cierva!

This ain't no helicopter. It is a powered, pusher AutoGyro. I'll give you this, it IS more advanced than those built by Igor Benson down North Carolina way.

It is a great idea, too. The concept could replace the Osprey tilt-engine concept, with which me personally, ain't never been comfy with, despite reassuring notes from AA.
