Beech-Staggerwing
Very few pre-war biplanes had enclosed cabins and fewer still had a retractable undercarriage; the four-seater Beech-17 'Staggerwing’ had both. It was something of a misnomer as many biplanes had upper and lower wings staggered but the Beech reversed the usual layout by staggering the upper pair behind the lower. With this configuration, the pilot enjoyed an excellent field of view without the restrictions of the upper wing. Most 'Staggerwings' flying today are ex-USAAF C-43 Travelers powered by a 45O hp Pratt & Whitney Wasp junior offering a cruising speed of 200 mph.
Dr Glen Volyn has done some clever 'cutting edge' (no pun) paper engineering that makes this tough little design incredibly simple to build. It's being offered in BOTH the Racing AND the Light AC Collections
