Fisher Flying Products, Fisher Classic bi-plane experimental aircraft

  • 9 years ago
http://www.ultralightnews.com – Fisher Classic experimental aircraft, Fisher Flying Products. Alright, alright... I'll admit it: I am a sucker for aircraft which can "take you back in time"--and the Classic definitely fits in that category.

Luckily, this open-cockpit biplane is as pleasing to the eye as it is to fly. With a 66-hp Rotax engine, it will give impressive performance... it is an aggressive and responsive airplane. It is quick to react, partly because of full-span ailerons and a semi-symmetrical airfoil.

The detachable-wing Classic is off the ground in as little as 200 feet, climbs at somewhere between 900 and 1300 fpm (depending upon how loaded down you have the thing), has a VNE of 100 and cruises at a decent 80 mph.

In addition, geodetic wood construction and additional bracing empowers the Classic with notable structural strength, enough to withstand higher G's than many light planes.

A fairly short-winged airplane, it's only 22 feet from wingtip to wing tip, length, 16 feet 9 inches; height 5 feet 11 inches. This classic taildragger is made of wood and fabric and takes about 400 hours to build, however, a quick-build option is available which can cut that estimated time down to 250 hours.
