While reading "History of German Guided Missiles Development" I came across a reference by Baron Von Zborowsky himself on a wartime helicopter project to lift such heavy loads as tanks up to a 100kms at 100km/h. It would use rocket engines attached to the rotor blade tips. Does anyone know more? Perhaps the book "La SNECMA, von Zborowski et le Coleoptere" has some hints?
