variants with their own articles=The Layzell Cricket is a single-seat autogyro produced in the United Kingdom for homebuilding, although it was first produced in the early 1970s fully factory-built. It was a typically minialist design, featuring a pilot's seat semi-enclosed within a fairing, and a pusher engine and large tail fin located aft of the rotor mast. Forty-three of the original Crickets were built by Campbell Aircraft, with the type enjoying a brief revival in 2001 when it was briefly marketed in kit form by Cricket Gyroplanes, before reaching production again in 2005 by Layzell Gyroplanes as the Mk.6.
