The BP-36 Empire was an early single-person Biplane, designed for civilian exploration & recreation. Powered by an engine with no less than Five Hundred Horsepower, the aircraft has a takeoff speed of 80mph & a maximum takeoff weight of 6000lb, allowing limited exploration of even the harshest climates. The aircraft initially saw a 100 plane run before a slight incident in Poland, but the plane was rereleased as the Victory in 1946 in the form of a kit plane.
Be very careful with the elevators, this thing is hilariously unstable on the Y axis and a wrong move could cause a severe spin.
