The AISA GN was a prototype four-seat autogyro developed in Spain between 1971 and 1982.
Recognition (WEFT)
| W — Wings | High-mounted, rotary |
|---|---|
| E — Engines | 1 × piston, fuselage-mounted |
| F — Fuselage | 6.5 m fuselage |
| T — Tail | Twin fin |
WEFT is AircraftIQ's four-point recognition method — how it works.
Spot it by:
- Extensively glazed cabin
- Pusher engine
- Tail fin carried at the end of two booms mounted to stub wings
Look for an autogyro with a glazed cabin, a pusher engine, tricycle undercarriage and a tail fin on two booms from stub wings. The 12 m figure is the rotor diameter.
