The Pitcairn PCA-2 was an autogyro (designated as "autogiro" by Pitcairn) developed in the United States in the early 1930s. It was Harold F. Pitcairn's first autogyro design to sell in quantity. It had a conventional design for its day – an airplane-like fuselage with two open cockpits in tandem, and an engine mounted tractor-fashion in the nose. The lift by the four-blade main rotor was augmented by stubby, low-set monoplane wings that also carried the control surfaces. The wingtips featured considerable dihedral that acted as winglets for added stability.

  • Il Pitcairn PCA-2 era un autogiro utility biposto sviluppato dall'azienda aeronautica statunitense nei primi anni trenta. Destinato al mercato dell'aviazione generale, pur se prodotto in serie limitata, fu il primo autogiro progettato da Harold Frederick Pitcairn ad essere venduto in un significativo numero di esemplari, inoltre conquistò la notorietà grazie alle imprese conseguite da alcuni aviatori statunitensi tra cui Amelia Earhart, che ai suoi comandi nel 1931 stabilì un primato di massima quota raggiunta per aerodine di quella categoria.
