AutoGyro
Cavalon
With its expansive canopy, its spacious cabin, its seamless composite body, and in every finely tuned aspect of its award-winning design, the AutoGyro Cavalon is the most tactile, immersive way to experience flight. Winner of the prestigious international Red Dot Award, its smooth lines and quiet comfort allow any aviator to make the most of their time in the air.
Starting in 2019, AutoGyro offers the Cavalon not only as a kit but as a certificated aircraft, available pre-built from the factory with a powerful Rotax 915 engine.
All gyroplanes built in the United States require an Airworthiness Inspection, Transponder Certification, and Phase 1 Fly-Off in the designated area, all of which Cierva.Aero can facilitate.
