View Full Version : Weir W-2 Gyro

I've become interested in the Weir W-2 Gyro and was wondering if some
aviation enthusiast that has been to the Scottish museum might have
some photos they could E-mail. Any other info on this old Gyro would
be appreciated. The Internet info seems to be kind of sparse. Yeh, I
know I'm getting spoiled by the net. 20 years ago I'd have never even
heard of the thing.
