Product Description
-An aircraft with annular wings that flew in 1913.
-Developed and produced jointly by Cedric Lee and Therman Richards.
-There was a concept of a circular wing for a long time, and in 1911 Lee and Richards made a fuselage with a biplane annular wing, but it was disappointing.
-So we made a glider and experimented with it, and then made an airplane with an engine.
-The 3rd aircraft was the most stable flight and flew regularly until the outbreak of the war.
-The wings were mounted so that the front of the wings was raised, and elevons were attached to the rear of the wings.
-Two people could board and had a three-point landing gear.
-Despite the success of the aircraft, the ring wings generally did not spread.
