A small basic aircraft, it was a simple aircraft to operate and a rather sturdy one as well. They were produced until the late 40's, and were used in a variety of utility configurations, such as training and bush flying. To this day quite a few are still airworthy.

Some little utility biplane I made to experiment with parts with half their mass/drag applied. It's based on some rc balsa wood plane in my garage and the Piper Cub (though neither are biplanes). It flies really well in my opinion, and is as slow as I wanted it to be. Even the fixed gear seem to work better than my previous plane's. Enjoy!

Here's the original Yellow version (mostly cause subnerdica wanted it)

    So, will you write the fan fiction for it, I’m no good at that stuff. So, I want it to be a quick conversion for civiallian engineers allowing them to join the Air Force which requires upping the HP adding .303 brownings getting rig of the lower wing, redesigning the landing gear, set the cockpit lower and bringing the top wing lower, you get that? @TurtlesThatFly

    I like the slight curve in the wing, haven’t noticed that in other planes before.
