Costruzioni Italiane Elicotteri C.1 Cicogna

[Nico]

Hi boys,
looking for a drawing of the projected FIAT 7005 helicopter (I sent on the appropriate thread), I found a clipping from 'Alata Internazionale' magazine of July 1964, probably related to the '64 edition of the Turin Air Show, depicting the prototype of an helicopter that I totally forgot (if ever I had heard of...).
The picture I enclose was so captioned:
"An unexpected accomplishment, is the one-of-the-kind Cicogna C.1 (I would prefer C.1 Cicogna) two-seat helicopter, shown by Turin Costruzioni Italiane Elicotteri. Its engine is rated at 100 HP and its max speed is of 120 kph."
My clipping lack any other information...

Hi Nico,
what a nice find!
I had heard of the C.1 and have another picture, but that is about all. I understand that the Cicogna was roadable (a 10hp engine was used for road travel). The 100hp engine was a modified Mercury outboard unit.
