The 1929 Alexander Bullet was designed by Al Mooney, Max Munk (of NACA), and Ludwig Muther as a 3-4 seat cabin, lowing monoplane, with retractable undercarriage. One prototype, NX6390/] c/n 1, was built and first flown on 12 November 1929, piloted by Ted Haeuter and Al Mooney. In all, 12 Bullets were built and 4 partially completed.

Two were built as C-1 in 1929, NX8227 c/n 2000 and NX8228 c/n 2001, with Kinner K-5 engines, also seen in one reference as C-3. They were priced at $6,500-7,200.

One Bullet C-3 racer for the 1930 Nationals was built, registered NR8228 c/n 2001. It was later dismantled.

The 1929 Bullet C-4 and Bullet C-5 (ATC 2-181) was priced at $8,888. Eight were built: NX700H (appears in regs as a C-4), NR705H (as C-4), N732H, N741H, N747H, N761H, N771H, and N774H (as C-4).

Motor options of 165hp Comet 7-E and Axelson B were never installed.

Although flown successfully in many competitions by Edith Foltz and Errett Williams (hence the “R” licensing), C-5s were rough on test pilots. On 16 September 1929 undefined problems arose during a test flight, and Errett Williams had to bail out, then L W Sylvester was killed 21 September 1929 in a spin test. On 7 October 1929, Shelly Charles was forced to bail out during a spin, and on 5 November 1929, Lewis Love’s plane failed to recover from a fatal spin.

The 1930 Bullet C-7 (ATC 2-181, superseded by 318) was the final sleeked-up version with longer fuselage, full-panted fixed gear, partly-cowled motor, and redesigned tail group.

Priced at $7,200, and $6,500 by 1931, it was the first low-wing cabin monoplane to be granted an ATC, many of its design innovations are evident in Mooney’s subsequent aircraft.

Only one was built; NC309V c/n 2013

The 1930 Alexander B-1 was Alexander’s popular glider fitted with a Henderson motorcycle engine.

It is not known how many were built but one registered might be the only powered version of many gliders N602W c/n 101.

The 1930 Aircraft Builders Parrot was a two-place cabin monoplane powered by a Velie M-5 (or possibly Anzani) engine.

Registered N11132 c/n 100, it was dismantled and the registration cancelled on 19 May 1931.

Produced in 1936 by Aircraft Associates, the company, a principal distributor, began producing Taylor J-2 under a subcontract for Taylor Co after their disastrous Bradford PA plant fire in Mar 1937. With ATC 620, 10-20 were built priced at $1,270.
