Jefferson Jyrodynes

The Jefferson Jyrodyne™ is a 210 hp, two passenger aircraft trainer when in VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) mode. In STOL or what is considered conventional flight, it is a four passenger aircraft with a 600-1000 lbs. payload.

Jefferson Jyrodynes, Inc. is a Chapter S corporation whose ultimate objective is to build VTOL fire trucks and ambulances. We plan to offer homebuilders kits for a personal aircraft version, along with a hopping airboat version.
