Reynolds - Aviation Displays

In addition to their other exhibits, the Reynolds Alberta Museum includes some aviation displays.  Several of the aircraft are parked outside.  Some of the more valuable aircraft are displayed indoors, in a hanger.  
The indoor displays include a couple of gyrocopters made by a company out of Ponoka Alberta.  My skylight company used to make the windshields and door panels for these guys.  This was Rotary Air Force, a company started by aviation inventor Bernard Haseloh, and later taken over by his nephews.  Sadly one of the nephews was killed in a crash in the late 1990's and I understand that the company was sold and moved to South Africa.
