The 39th Annual Bensen Days Fly In
Bensen Days 2012
for the Kid in All of Us
Remember the first time you saw one?
Way in the back of Popular Mechanics magazine, was an aircraft you could build in your garage, and tow behind your car.
The dream of flight, alive in your 10 year old mind. This is the year you honor that dream.
Wauchula Florida - Bensen Days, the premier gryoplane gathering in the US will again take place at the Wauchula Municipal Airport in Wauchula, Florida.
What is Bensen Days?
Bensen Days is the annual celebration of aviation and in particular the Gyroplane. It is sponsored by Sun State Wing and Rotor Club and named after Igor Bensen who popularized the home built gyroplane.
Beginning Wednesday, March 21st, through Sunday, March 25th rotor-heads from around
the country will congregate at CHN for fun, fellowship and most of all, flying.
Unlike other fly-ins where pilots fly in and spend the rest of the time talking, gyroplane pilots fly. The airport campground will be full to capacity, and the fun will start at dawn andcontinue into the evening. The event is open to all types of aircraft and pilots, including powered rotor, powered parachutes, trikes, fixed wings and ppgs.
Originated by Sunstate Wing and Rotor Club, the festival honors the memory of a pioneer
of home built flight, Igor Bensen. This year the Popular Rotocraft Association will em-
brace the fly-in as an official association fly-in, which will only make it better. If history is any guide, you will have the opportunity to see gyroplanes of every imaginable style and model, from basic home built machines to exotic enclosed multi passenger models. Instructors will be available to do both training and introductory flights. Visit for the day or immerse yourself for the whole event. Come alone or bring the family.
What is a Gyroplane?
A gyroplane is a propeller driven aircraft which uses a non-powered rotor for lift instead of a wing. It does not spin or stall like fixed wing aircraft. It stays fully controllable even if the engine quits. It is the most agile and manueverable of aircraft and lands with little or no rollout.
