Early Soviet autogyro, 1932
Early Soviet autogyro taking off on a test flight on 10 October 1932. An autogyro takes off like an aeroplane, relying on its forward motion to rotate the rotor blades and provide upwards lift. A helicopter, in contrast, uses an engine to power its rotor. The worlds first autogyro was developed in Spain in 1923. The first Soviet autogyro, designated TsAGI 2-EA, was built in 1931, with a series of successful test flights in 1932. Photographed in Russia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in aviation history - an early Soviet autogyro taking off on a test flight in Russia, on 10 October 1932. The autogyro, a pioneering aircraft, relied on its forward motion to rotate the rotor blades and provide lift, distinguishing it from helicopters that use engines to power their rotors. Developed in Spain in 1923, the first Soviet autogyro, known as TsAGI 2-EA, was built in 1931 and underwent a series of successful test flights the following year. This image showcases the determination of early aviators who pushed boundaries and explored new frontiers of technology. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this photograph while emphasizing the historical significance of this breakthrough achievement. A male pilot can be seen confidently piloting the autogyro into flight, symbolizing not only his individual bravery but also representing the collective efforts of pioneers in aeronautics during this era. Transportation enthusiasts and history buffs alike will appreciate this remarkable snapshot from the past. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come since those early days of aviation research and experimentation. This image is truly emblematic of human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of technological advancement throughout the twentieth century.
