Dart Pup
From PlaneSpottingWorld, for aviation fans everywhere
The Dart Pup (originally the Dunstable Dart) was a British single-seat ultralight monoplane designed and built by Zander and Weyl (later Dart Aircraft) at Dunstable, Bedfordshire.[1]
Development
The Pup was a single-seat parasol wing monoplane with a Ava flat-four pusher engine mounted on the wing trailing edge. The wings could be folded back for storage. The Pup registered G-AELR first flew in July 1936.[2]
In 1937 the Pup was fitted with a 36 hp (27 kW) Bristol Cherub engine, a taller landing gear and a modified rudder.[1] In August 1938 it crashed and was destroyed on take off.[3]
