Augusto Cicaré

Augusto Ulderico Cicaré (25 May 1937 – 26 January 2022) was an Argentinian inventor, engineer, and aviation designer.
In 1958, even though he had never seen an actual helicopter before, and knowing little of helicopter design, Cicaré's first successful helicopter design, the CH-1, flew for the first time.
In the late 1960s, Cicaré designed a V-4 engine for use in DKW automobiles. His best known works were the Cicaré CH-10 and CH-11 ultralight helicopters. He also helped create the Cicaré SVH-3 flight simulator.
He died in Saladillo, Buenos Aires on 26 January 2022, at the age of 84.
