Actually, it would make more sense to ask who created the helicopter. As designs and ideas for helicopters have evolved throughout the years, one thing has remained the same-there is no one specific engine that has been created strictly for a helicopter. Helicopters use engines that can be used for other aircraft such as planes, jets and turboprops. They can be factory modified to fit a specific helicopter but the basic design remains used amongst many applications. Early helicopters used engines that were already being made for airplanes. Modern helicopters use two basic types of engines-piston and turbine. Piston engines are similar to ones used in automobiles. Turbine engines, also known as jet engines, make a loud shireking whirring noise when they are operating. Both types are also used in airplanes.
