White Baby White

The 1916 Baby White built by George D White was a single seat monoplane, powered by an approximately 15hp motorcycle engine and chain-driven pusher propeller. Of canard configuration with trailing-edge ailerons and reverse tricycle gear, it was test-flown at the Ascot Speedway in Los Angeles.

The first kit-form aircraft offered in the US, one was built, plus an unknown number of kits for home-builders.
