The de Bruyne DB-2 Snark was a British experimental four-seat cabin monoplane designed by N. A de Bruyne and built by Aero Research Limited (ARL) of Cambridgeshire.[1] bakelite -bonded plywood , stressed skin wing and fuselage structures.[2]
Development [ edit ]
Apart from the structure the Snark was a conventional looking low-wing four-seat cabin monoplane, powered by a nose-mounted 130 hp (97 kW ) de Havilland Gipsy Major piston engine. Registered G-ADDL [3] [2]
Though stressed plywood skinned aircraft had been built before, it was claimed at the time that the Snark was the first to have been designed with full stress calculations, including loads carried by both wing and fuselage skins.[4] Miles Falcon had achieved 1.62.
In May 1936 the Snark was transferred to the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough for research into the aerodynamics of thick wing monoplanes, with serial number L6103 .[1] [2] [5] Croydon Airport in 1940.[6]
