Remember the start of aviation is attributed to a flight that last 13 second only. Now aviation industry has grown so much and flying machines serving different purpose are very common. There is new concept in personal aviation; a single seater lightweight sport helicopter that combines low weight and corresponding low flying costs in an easily transportable design which would make this flying machine the ultimate in personal aviation. The mini "Muecke" (also called mosquito) is will be powered by a shaft driven turbine and will have counter rotating blades. It will not require require a tail rotor, instead utilizing movable paddles at the tip of the rotor blades which act like a kind of thrust vectoring of the turbine exhaust to help make course corrections in forward flight as well as in hover.

It is different than the Mosquito XE Ultralight Kit Helicopter. The "Muecke" is more like the Two-seater Hummel fold up helicopter in concept. The Muecke can be tilted forward by hand and moved along like a hand barrow.

The personal aviation industry will continue to grow as more people take advantage of the liberal rules introduced by in somce countries that require as few as 20 hours of flight time to qualify for a sport pilots license.

There certainly is a demand for more Ultralight aircraft such as the "Muecke" concept as the personal aviation is growing popular fast.
