Bill,
Thanks for the correction on my Ercoach Twin engine project posting. I
admit I was mislead by the pictures in "The Ercoupe, A Touch of
Class".......even tho I had read about the Ercoach project in Fred's
autobiography."From the Ground Up".pgs 227 - 229.....and even
referenced the article in my e-mail about the twin.
Perhaps the pictures in "... A touch of Class", were of a
later project...? By Alon ?, along with Alon's 4 place ???? Hope you have
some information on this.
To set the record straight, the Ercoach was a twin engine, pusher prop
design, using twin tails, just like the Ercoupe. Projected use was 125 hp
engines mounted in the wings...with shaft drives for the pusher props.
Again, its a shame that development stopped, as it would probably have been
the first light twin on the market.
