The Sznycer-Gottlieb SG-VI Grey Gull would be the first and the last true helicopter to be designed, built, and certified in Canada. It was also the first helicopter ever certified in the British Commonwealth. Although it never entered production, the Grey Gull was a milestone for the Canadian Aerospace Industry and will go down in rotorcraft history as one of its pioneers.
