The Xenon gyrocopter was originally manufactured by ABS Aerolight in France. These early examples were powered by Hirth engines - a total of approximately 15 Xenons were built by ABS, many being supplied as kits.
By early 2007 production had moved to Poland with a new production facility being built Jaktorow-Kolonia about 30 miles south west of Warsaw. Over 150 examples have been built by April 2012.
The construction number plate ( serial number or werknummer ) on the Xenon gyrocopter is located behind the cockpit and below the engine exhaust muffler - it is circled in pink in the photo below.
If you are the owner or pilot of a Xenon gyroplane I would be very interested to know the construction number of the example that you fly - please do get in touch - thank you.
Xenon pilot and Xenon owners - please get in touch by email to update these details - If you can supply a jpeg photo of your Xenon I will add it onto this worldwide fleet listing - Thank you - Steve
