Woody Pusher

The Woody’s Pusher was designed by H.L. Woods, a former engineer at Bensen Aircraft Corp. The Woody’s Pusher is a tandem two-seater with a parasol-mounted wing. The engine, which may range in power from 65 to 85 hp, is carried on top of the wing in a pusher fashion and turns a wooden, fixed-blade prop. Originally the Pusher was designed with a fuselage of wood covered with plywood and fabric. Later models of the light open-cockpit feature a steel-tube, fabric-covered fuselage and metal leading edges on its wood and fabric wing assemblies. Later versions utilised a wooden framed fuselage with fibreglass covered wood panelling. The landing gear is the nonretractable tailwheel type.
