Fairey Rotodyne
 
A beautiful in-house model of the Fairey Rotodyne, in 1: 40 scale, made of various different materials, dating from the late 1950s.
 
The Rotodyne was an advanced concept that almost made it.  The prototype flew in 1957 but although several orders were received, delays led to the whole project being cancelled in 1962.
The model represents the projected production version rather than the prototype.  It is one of possibly just two or three models made of the aircraft.
