The Taylor Titch is a British fixed-wing homebuilt aircraft , developed in the 1960s by J.F. Taylor.[1] [update] [2]
Development [ edit ]
Taylor Titch at Popham,Hants. c. 2013.
Taylor designed the Titch[a] Rollason .[3] [3] Titch based on his earlier Taylor Monoplane .
At the closing date of the competition 42 designs had been submitted which was won by a project named Beta but the Titch was placed second.[3]
Taylor built the prototype, registered G-ATYO, at Leigh-on-Sea, Essex between 1965 and 1966. The Titch first flew at Southend Airport on 4 January 1967.[4]
The designer John Taylor was killed when the prototype Titch crashed at Southend on 16 May 1967. The marketing of plans for both his aircraft designs were taken on by his wife and later his son.[5]
As of 2011[update] [6]
The Titch is a single-seat low-wing cantilever monoplane of all wood construction similar to the Monoplane but has fewer metal fittings than the earlier design and full size wing rib plans are supplied for the tapered wing panels. With a cruise speed in the region of 160 mph (260 km/h), it is an effective cross-country touring aircraft and is also fully aerobatic . Builders can fit it with either a Continental or a Lycoming engine.[4]
