The Monte-Copter Model 15 Triphibian, circa 1960, a 3-seat amphibious helicopter with a “cold-jet” type of rotor drive, in which the rotor is turned by ejecting compressed air from nozzles at the blade-tips, without any form of combustion.
huge thanks to Terry Robinson, at the Classic Rotors museum, for the image
