Groen Brothers Aviation, Inc. (GBA) is engaged in the business of designing and developing new high performance gyroplanes and gyrodynes using advanced technology and modern aerospace design methods. GBA was founded in 1986 by David Groen and his brother, the late Jay Groen. David, Chairman, President & CEO, is supported by highly experienced aviation executives in key roles. GBA's Corporate Headquarters are located in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, with its current manufacturing facility on the same site. GBA also operates a flight test and R&D facility in Buckeye, Arizona, near Phoenix. Since its inception twenty years ago, GBA has been involved in an extensive research program in the design, engineering, development, testing and marketing of gyroplane and gyrodyne aircraft. As a result GBA has successfully developed innovative technology that has brought autorotative flight into the modern age. In November, 2005, the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) selected a GBA-led team to design a proof of concept high speed, long range, vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft designed for use in Combat Search and Rescue roles. This modern rotorcraft, named the “Heliplane” by DARPA, could be the next generation rotor wing aircraft, meeting economy and performance goals not considered achievable by any other type of VTOL aircraft.
