AutoGyro MTOclassic Sets World Record For Gyroplanes | 26,663 Feet In Altitude | Namibia 2013

In October 2013, there was tension in the air above the Namibian Airfield Rostock. It was the day that the MTOsport was going to set a world record with its high altitude flight. For this event and to support the pilot Martin Wucher and the team of AutoGyro Namibia, the international AutoGyro crew moved closed together and came in from Germany, Russia and the USA. It was an incredible day, an outstanding achievement and a testament of the entire AutoGyro family and our products.
