Classic Rotors is a flying aviation museum specializing in helicopters and other rotorcraft, located at Ramona Airport in Ramona, California, United States.
History
[edit | edit source]The museum was founded in 1992 by Mark DiCiero, after he built and learned to fly his own helicopter. The museum is a non-profit and all-volunteer organization, with no paid staff. The museum currently has five helicopters in flying condition, which are flown in air displays.[1][2][3]
The museum describes its mission as being:
...dedicated to the preservation of rare and vintage rotorcraft. Our mission is to preserve these rotorcraft as a tribute to the pioneers who risked so much to develop vertical flight technology. A key objective is to provide education about, and demonstrate various designs in rotor technology including tandem, co-axial, conventional (single), sync (intermeshing) and tip powered.[1]
