Anequim Brazilian record setter
« on: November 20, 2015, 06:37:31 PM »
A few interesting full scale aircraft articles have shown up here lately so I thought I'd throw in another one. This little beauty from Brazil recently broke five records for speed and time to climb. It's pretty small with just barely room for a "not to large" pilot to sit. There was a great article a few months ago in "Smithsonian Air and Space" on the plane and designer. Another article on the records set is here-

I think it's what's in a Cessna 172 with lots of mods for more oomph.
