The Piel CP-30 Emeraude is an aircraft designed in France in the mid-1950s and widely built both by factories and homebuilders. It is a low-wing cantilever monoplane with fixed tailwheel undercarriage and side-by-side seating for two. The prototype was designed and built by Claude Piel, who then licenced manufacture of the aircraft to a number of firms, most significantly Coopavia. These early production machines were similar to the prototype, but were fitted with more powerful engines. |

The Polikarpov I-15 (Russian: И-15) was a Soviet biplane fighter aircraft of the 1930s. Nicknamed Chaika (Russian: И-15 Чайка, "Seagull") because of its gulled upper wings, it was operated in large numbers by the Soviet Air Force, and together with the Polikarpov I-16 monoplane, was one of the standard fighters of the Spanish Republicans during the Spanish Civil War, where it was called Chato (snub-nose) in the Republican Air Force, or "Curtiss" (because its resemblance to Curtiss F9C Sparrowhawk) in the Nationalist Air Force. |

Two prototypes were ordered, the first flying from Yate in mid 1928. Despite its promising appearance and engineering novelty the Pipit did not fly as well as expected, the elevator being criticised as heavy while the rudder was weak and the type was longitudinally unstable. Before much development flying could be done, however, the tailplane failed due to flutter in a diving test on 20 September. The pilot landed the damaged aircraft but it was destroyed in the resulting somersault. The pilot sustained serious injuries. |

Percival Gull Six
IMAGE |
The Percival Gull was the first aircraft designed by the Percival Aircraft Company, formed in 1932 by Edgar Percival and Lt. Cdr E.B.W. Leake. It was designed by Percival himself and was strongly influenced by the Hendy 302, designed by Basil "Hendy" Henderson, that he had previously owned and raced. At first the company did not have the facilities to build the Gull, so the prototype was produced by the Lowe-Wylde British Aircraft Company of Maidstone, Kent and the first 24 production machines[ by Parnall Aircraft of Yate, Gloucestershire. The Company moved to Gravesend Airport in Kent in 1934, where they built their own Gulls. |

Percival Mew Gull |
The Percival Mew Gull was a British racing aircraft of the 1930s. It was a small, single-engine, single-seat, low wing monoplane of wooden construction, normally powered by a six-cylinder de Havilland Gipsy Six piston engine. During its racing career it set many records and was considered a significant, efficient design, one that eventually reached a top speed of 265 mph (425 km/h) on a modest 205 hp (153 kW) in its final 1939 form. A modern-day observer has characterised the Mew Gull as "the Holy Grail of British air racing"During the second half of the 1930s, Mew Gulls were dominant in air-racing in the UK and consistently recorded the fastest times until the outbreak of war stopped all civilian flying in late 1939 |

PZL 46 Sum | The PZL.46 Sum (wels catfish) was designed by Stanisław Prauss in the PZL works as a successor to standard Polish light bomber and reconnaissance plane, the PZL.23 Karaś, also of Prauss' design. First sketches were made in 1936. In order to test new features, like double tail fins and retractable underbelly bombardier gondola, a single modified PZL.23, designated PZL.42 was built and tested in 1936. The first prototype of PZL.46 Sum flew in August 1938. It shared only a general composition with Karaś, its fuselage was much more aerodynamically refined and wings had thinner profile. Initially it was intended to use retractable landing gear, but since the Polish industry did not produce proper landing gear, a fixed one was used. In November-December 1938 the prototype was shown at the Paris Air Show. In May 1939 the second similar prototype was flown (PZL.46/II). |

The PC-6 is noted for its Short Take-off and Landing (STOL) performance on almost any type of terrain - it can take-off within a distance of 195 metres (640 ft) and land within a distance of 130 metres (427 ft) while carrying a payload of 1,500 kg (3,300 lb) (The length of a soccer field is enough, Pilatus test pilots were able to land on not much more than 50 metres (164 ft) of space). Thanks to its STOL performance, the PC-6 holds the world record for highest landing by a fixed wing aircraft, at 5,750 metres (18,865 ft), on the Dhaulagiri glacier in Nepal. |

The Piper J2 and J3 Cub
light airplanes were the predecessors of the military L4 Grasshopper. About
5500 L4s were delivered to the U.S. Government, starting early in World War
II (adding to the 3000 or so civilian Piper Cubs already in the air). They
were classified as Liason and designated OG-59 originally, then known as the
TG-8 trainer or AE-NE1/NE2 (Navy) in addition to L-4A for Army use. Varients
during the war were designated L-4B through L-4G. They saw combat as
observation, courier and general light transportation in the North African
landings of November 1942 and went on to serve in all theaters of World War
II. During the Korean war, an improved L-4 returned designated the L-18. |

The PZL P.11 was a Polish fighter
aircraft, designed in the early 1930s by PZL in Warsaw. It was briefly
considered to be the most advanced fighter aircraft design in the
world.The PZL P.11 served as Poland's primary fighter defence in the
Polish campaign of 1939, but by that point was outdated due to rapid
advances in aircraft design. |

The Piper PA-18 Super Cub is a two-seat, single-engine monoplane. Introduced in 1949 by Piper Aircraft, it was developed from the Piper PA-11, and traces its lineage back through the J-3 to the Taylor E-2 Cub of the 1930s. In close to 40 years of production, over 9,000 were built. Super Cubs are commonly found in roles such as bush flying, banner and glider towing. |

The PA-22 Tri-Paceri s a family of
four-place, strut braced, high-wing light aircraft that were
built by Piper Aircraft in the post-World War II period. The
Pacer was essentially a four-place version of the two-place
PA-17 Vagabond light aircraft. It features a steel tube fuselage
and an aluminum frame wing, covered with fabric, much like
Piper's most famous aircraft, the Cub and Super Cub. An aircraft
prized for its ruggedness, spacious cabin, and, for its time,
impressive speed, many Pacers continue to fly today. Factory
installed 125 hp (93 kW), 135 hp (100 kW) and 150 hp (112 kW)
engine options were available and 160 hp (120 kW) as well as
180 hp (135 kW) engine after-market conversions are an option.

The PWS-19 was constructed in 1930 in order to replace the French-designed bombers Potez 25 and Breguet 19 in the Polish Air Force. It was a development of the PWS-17, which remained unbuilt. Main designers were Zbysław Ciołkosz and Antoni Uszacki. It was planned to be produced in two variants: reconnaissance PWS-19A2 and bomber PWS-19B2. It was a conventional design, a strutted high-wing monoplane with quite elegant silhouette, open cockpits and fixed landing gear. It was fitted with double tailfins to obtain a good field of defense fire.In 1934 Antoni Uszacki designed a smaller plane basing on the PWS-19, designated PWS U-6, with G-1620 Mors 400 hp engine. It participated in a contest for an army cooperation plane, but lost against RWD-14 Czapla and was not built. |
