AirScooter Corporate History

AirScooter Corporation is a Nevada corporation dedicated to innovating new flight concepts for the recreational market.

The Company was founded in early 2000 by Elwood (Woody) Norris and Jim Barnes. In May 1999 they financed the investigation of various coaxial rotor designs and financed studies combining the best techniques learned over the years with new innovations and improvements targeted at a unique category of flying craft, the AirScooter™. After approving an original design, AirScooter Corporation was formed and funded to build, test, manufacture and distribute a new generation of flying craft and power system.

AirScooter is applied coaxial counter-rotating dual rotor systems and space-age material technology to three product concepts, the AirScooter recreational flying vehicle, the AirScooter Unmanned Aerial Vehicle and AirScoot RC Hobby Model.

Early on in AirScooter's development it was discovered that there was no quality light-weight four-stroke engine anywhere in the world to meet the needs of a craft of this design. Because of this, AeroTwin Motors Corporation (see aerotwinmotors.com) was formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary of AirScooter Corporation. AeroTwin Motors Corporation has been instrumental in the financing and technical development of the AeroTwin™ Engine. The AeroTwin is a 65 HP range lightweight aviation engine with many unique patent-pending features. Our subsidiary, AeroTwin Motors Corporation has the rights to manufacture and distribute engines worldwide.

AirScooter has assembled a diverse team (view Personnel) combining entrepreneurs, manufacturing specialists, and engine experts.
