Vertibird is a designation for a series of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft.
Background[]
After the Great War, the United States Armed Forces utilized these vehicles to deliver supplies, such was the case in the town of Berkeley Springs.[1] Hornwright Industrial researched the capabilities of the vehicles and brainstormed how they could be utilized for their own initiatives.[2] The Appalachian Brotherhood's Scribe Valdez engages in research on the craft and keeps track of her findings at Fort Atlas.[3]
In 2104, a pilot named Lennox began transporting Vault Dwellers to the Pitt using a vertibird at The Whitespring Resort.
