Meet RotorWay Exec / JetExec
The Exec family was supplied for amateur construction by RotorWay in Arizona. The basic design uses skids and a two-blade main rotor. FlyInside's catalogue distinguishes the RW162F from the JetExec rather than treating their different powerplants as cosmetic variations. Product-specific engine and systems descriptions remain with each implementation.
