Avrocar
The Avrocar was designed by Avro Aircraft Canada and was a true flying saucer that was built as a research vehicle. The disc shaped aircraft had pilot and observer in separate cockpits and was powered by three turbojets turning in a central "turbo-rotor". A vane/shutter system diverted thrust for directional control. The diameter of the Avrocar was 6.2 meters with wheels and later tricycle landing pads for an undercarriage.
