Walsh 1910 Monoplane

In its original configuration (with nose wheel); the modern looking monoplane devised by Charles Francis Walsh, who had founded the San Diego Aeroplane Manufacturing Company the previous year. The machine, with its massive wing, would probably have flown but was severely handicapped by its underpowered Cameron automobile engine of only 29 hp.

Wallman Sportplane

Circa 1975 Fred W Wallman Jr built the two-place, open cockpit, high-wing monoplane, Sportplane, registered N4FW. The fuselage and tail were steel tube, and wing was all wood.
