About the Magni Gyro M24 Orion
The Magni M24 Orion is a two-seat autogyro manufactured by Magni Gyro of Italy, representing one of the most successful modern light gyroplanes in production. Unlike helicopters, autogyros use an unpowered rotor for lift while a conventional engine-driven propeller provides thrust, combining some advantages of both fixed-wing aircraft and rotorcraft. The M24 Orion entered production in the early 2000s and quickly became popular in the recreational aviation market for its relatively simple mechanics, short takeoff requirements, and excellent low-speed handling characteristics.
Powered by a Rotax 914 turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 115 horsepower, the M24 Orion achieves a maximum cruise speed around 100 knots with a never-exceed speed of 115 knots. Its maximum takeoff weight of just under 1,000 pounds places it firmly in the ultralight category in many jurisdictions, though it requires a full rotorcraft rating to operate in the United States. The aircraft can take off in as little as 150 feet and land in even shorter distances, making it ideal for operations from small strips and confined areas. Its open or enclosed cockpit variants offer flexibility for different climates and pilot preferences.
The type has found niche applications beyond recreation, including aerial photography, pipeline patrol, and agricultural observation, where its slow-flight capability and excellent visibility prove advantageous over conventional aircraft. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
