Unlike helicopters, Autogyros are driven by a pusher propeller and supported by a rotor spun by the craft's forward motion. With a record attempt that will span 25 countries and take approximately 3 1/2 months, Barry and his team have spent two years preparing for this groundbreaking adventure. Join them as they navigate different climatic regions and long stretches of water, pushing the limits of aviation and making history along the way.\n
