"The approach of Kestrel Aerospace Limited is simple and effective with a full, adaptable vehicle capable of removing
road congestion, reducing emissions and providing a greatly increased spectrum of opportunities for military, civilian and
business users around the globe. The design incorporates all the advantages of light aircraft and small helicopters, making
it unique in this field".
"The aircraft has a unique patented propulsion system powered by a new type of
lightweight rotary engine, situated internally. The engine uses a new
technique for distributing power to the lift units."
"The Airframe has gear similar to a Blackhawk helicopter design. Two
retractable landing gear units (one on each side of the airframe) are built
in, and a tail wheel is built in to the base of the tail strut." The company presently (2005) offers various
aeronautical services and in addition to the new VTOL, also plans to bring a new form of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
to the marketplace. It will serve as a reconnaissance and survey vehicle.
