Wright Mk.I

Peter Wright started the construction of a man powered aircraft in January 1971 at Melton Mowbray, UK. Similar to the ‘Puffin’ but differing in having a three unit undercarriage and swept forward wings.

The Mk.I first flew in February 1972 for 120 yards. After several flights it was decided a better test site was needed and that a Mk.II should be built.
