Announcing - The Most Remarkable Plane in Aviation History
Ad Description
The Aeronca C-2 opens a new era in aviation. Its design and construction is the result of courage and vision on the part of its creators. All precedents and tendencies were forgotten in the desire to build a plane which is far lower in initial cost and cheaper to operate than any automobile... a plane which the average man can fly safely and own proudly.
The Aeronca C-2 is the result of 3 years study, development and intensive testing. Unparalleled combinations of wing span and power loading provide as great an inherent degree of safety as it is possible to attain in any airplane. Its motor is just as unique and conforms exactly to the aerodynamic principles of the plane itself. It develops 30 H.P. at 2500 R.P.M. on 2 gallons of gasoline an hour. And an hour at crusiing speed means 65 to 70 miles.
The Aeronca C-2 is the answer to aviation's greatest needs. Student fliers can cut their training costs in half; sportmen can at last enjoy the pleasure of infinite freedom and the thrill of whistling wing and speed in their own plane; flying clubs can buy and operate their plane at a very low figure; aviation schools can reduce there fees and double and treble their enrollment. In short, the Aeronca C-2 is what the country has been waiting for... the first absolutely safe, practical and economical light airplane.
The Aeronca C-2 is built in its own factory. The entire plane... expect instruments and tires... is under direct control of the manufacturer. There is only one profit. The production of every part is certified... which means that every Aeronca C-2is assured of a sueriority in design, style, finish, performance, dependability and economy. All in all, the Aerona C-2 is a value far in excess of any plane on the market today. For further details, write immediately.
A steep take-off after a 5-second run. Unusual design and remarkable aerodynamic efficiency makes this maneuver easy... and safe.
Gliding 32 miles with a dead stick. From 16,500 feet the Aeronca will glid to any spot in a circle 200 miles in circumference.
Its weight of only 400 LBS with gas and oil permits easy handling... During spectaular maneuvers aloft or in hauling about on the ground.
Jean A. Roche, Senior Aeronautical Engineer of the U. S. Army Air Corps, designed the Aeronca C-2 and its secial motor.
