Magni M-14 Scout

The Magni M-14 Scout is an Italian gyroplane designed for recreational and touring flights. Its pusher propeller and free-spinning rotor provide a simple alternative to helicopter ownership. The compact two-seat design is popular in the specialist gyroplane community but remains uncommon at ordinary airfields.

In CatchFlights the Magni M-14 Scout starts as a Rare catch. The tier is an editorial judgement of how special a sighting of this type is. The more often you catch it, the closer it moves to Common for you.

A catch counts for the manufacturer Magni, the M-14 Scout family and the model in your collection, and the daily Type Rating quiz asks about the types of each family.
