Aeronca K
The Aeronca Model K Scout is an American light airplane first marketed in 1937, and was the true successor to the popular C-2 /C-3 line.
Powered by a dual-ignition Aeronca E-113C engine , the Model K Scout brought the Aeronca design up to modern aviation standards. Eliminating the Aeronca's traditional “bathtub” appearance, the Scout featured a strut -braced high wing with a fully enclosed cockpit seating two side-by-side.[1]
A total of 357 Aeronca Model K Scouts were built.[2]
Operational history [ edit ]
73 Model K were on the U.S. civil aircraft register in May 2009 and several examples are preserved in museums. The EAA AirVenture Museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin has an example on display at its Pioneer Airport.[3] Yanks Air Museum in Chino, CA .[4] [5]
