The Fisher Barnstormer is a single-seat tricycle landing gear, reverse-staggered biplane ultralight aircraft designed by Michael Fisher and introduced in mid-1982.[1][2]
Development
The Barnstormer was intended to meet the requirements of the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles category, including that category's maximum Script error: No such module "convert". empty weight.[2]
The aircraft is a single-seat ultralight with an unusual reverse-stagger on its biplane wings, the top wing being behind the bottom wing. The airfoil used is a NACA 2305 section. The control system is a conventional three-axis type with ailerons, elevators and rudder. The airframe structure is of 6061T6 and 2024T3 aluminum tube, covered with Stits Polyfibre aircraft fabric. The landing gear is of a fixed tricycle configuration with bungee-suspension, Script error: No such module "convert". main wheels and brakes.[1][2]
The Barnstormer is fitted with a Script error: No such module "convert". Kawasaki 440A engine with a reduction drive system. The aircraft has an empty weight of Script error: No such module "convert". and a gross weight of Script error: No such module "convert"., giving a useful load of Script error: No such module "convert"..[1][2]
The aircraft was not successful commercially and was quickly replaced in the Fisher line by newer designs. Reviewer Andre Cliche stated "This ultralight is handicapped by its awkward and cluttered appearance."[2]
