There's regulation and regula-

people are so regulated they

But in a democracy, a certain

The autogiro differs from the
airplane in that it is a type Of air
craft that attains its lift by air
foils or blades rotating above the
fuselage instead of a fixed wing as
on the airplane. BY rotating these
blades or airfoils mechanically the
autogiro can be lifted with very
short take-off. After the blades are
rotating, the mechanical power fs
disengaged and the blades are kept
whirling by the air stream from the
