I'll just bring the current Challenge forward so there's no confusion with Brian's tongue-in-cheek suggestion above 
To sum up and add a little clue; It is very much a current project, an autogyro, designed in one country, for the conversion of an existing kit produced in another country, one of these two being America! Its powerplant, not yet revealed, but implied, is in the range 80 to 100kW

Morning gents. Pretty cold up here. -29° last night. I cannot make heads or tails of your current travel agency - funny-fan discussion, so I'll go prepare elk stew for the evening, starting from a considerable junk of elk....
See you guys later.

See you guys later.

I miss you Ken.
Please come back.
No idea Stig. I've tried going about this the other way. Try and find the existing kit and then move onto the project. I've looked at American (assuming that it's the "existing kit") autogyros with a similar shaped tail hoping it will lead to the project. The best I can come up with is the Star Bee Gyro - but I can't find any connection to your artists Apache looking canopy.
Cheers.

Good evening Graeme,
I second your plea to Ken, we all miss him!
Regarding the current challenge.
If you go back and look at my last rotorcraft challenge at the end of January, you will soon find where I got this challenge mate (there's a vague Steve Irwin connection that you may remember)!
The "other" country is a big Islamic State, but not the biggest!
Edited to say, got to attend a meeting now, back in fifty minutes!

Mate I did find the bottom image from a "Stingray" site but the bloke who drew it says it was pure fantasy? No?
See here...
Stingray's Art - Stingray's Rotorcraft Forum
Agreed it should go to Graeme.
Had another look at that forum. He seems to be responding to a member called "Rehan" so I thought it was just his imaginary autogyro...?
Rehan, is this how you want your autogyro to look?
Has anyone heard from Ken?
When the Stig gets back...tell him that his challenge was a 6 outta 10. "Can do better". "Easily distracted and disruptive in class".
You write report cards David?
