OTHER: Helicopter - Outside - Intermeshing - CW-105

I have an article with pictures from the Feb 1971 issue of Sport Aviation thanks to Hans G.

The pages will not be put on the web at present because of limited available web space. They are in their own file folder

It was a two-seater with a Continental 90-hp engine. The fuselage was very 'airplane' like. It looks to be fully built but had not flown at the time of the article.

From Rotary Wing Forum:

I never really recommend anything from Vortech but this is quite an interesting helicopter I have not seen before.

This helicopter was designed and built by Belgian,Clybouw Willy but never flown!!
I had the plans a few years ago to have a look at them and it surely is a nice set of construction drawings.
Mr. Clybouw was a draftsman by proffesion,hence the nice drawings.
I visited Mr. Clybouw some years ago and he still had (the partially) disassembled helicopter in his garage.
He assured me that the craft never has flown due to all kind of problems he was unable to sort,mainly due to lack of financial support.

Nice to have those plans as a curiosity but not to built a working helicopter from.
