More Practical Light Aeroplanes: The Bücker Bü 180 Student and the Tatra T201

Abstract

FOLLOWING on last month's descriptions of the Beneš Mráz series of light aeroplanes, these data on two further practical machines—one German, the other Czechoslovakian—may prove of general interest as indicating the modern trend of continental design. Of particular note is the way in which mixed construction has been used on both machines, in the German the front part of the fuselage being of steel tube, while the Czech example has a complete fuselage of steel tubes, this latter practice comparing with American light aeroplanes.
