VIEW WITHOUT DRAUGHT: The Buhl Aircraft Company of Detroit has recently completed the first Autogiro "pusher," and the machine has been flown by Mr. de la Cierva, who is visiting America at present. The photograph on the left shows Mr. Cierva in conversation with Mr. Harold Pitcairn, President of the Autogiro Company of America. In the right-hand view the machine is seen in flight. It will be noted that the pyramid which carries the rotor head is very tall, so that the occupants can even stand up in the nacelle without being decapitated. The new machine is very reminiscent of the early pusher aeroplanes of Mr. Henry Farman.
