This high-wing, single-engine monoplane seats one pilot plus one passenger and features traditional wood-and-fabric construction. With a 22.5-foot wingspan and powered by Continental or Lycoming engines producing 85 to 135 horsepower, the Tailwind became the first FAA Experimental category aircraft certified to carry passengers. Designed by renowned air racing pilot Sylvester J. "Steve" Wittman, it launched a homebuilding revolution that continues today.
