Popular Science and Popular Mechanics were my father's 'comics'. I read them avidly though my interests were more along. 'Grown your own Sea Monkey Colony' and 'Don't let anyone kick sand in your face, get a Charles Atlas course.'
Blow up airplanes and little personal helicopters gyrocopters were also interesting but probably at that time more up my Dad's street than mine.

Don't get too excited, guys. The article is actually about a new helicopter engine. No gyros inside.
