Recognition (WEFT)
| W — Wings | High-mounted, straight |
|---|---|
| E — Engines | 1 × piston, fuselage-mounted |
| F — Fuselage | 5.58 m fuselage |
| T — Tail | Conventional |
WEFT is AircraftIQ's four-point recognition method — how it works.
Spot it by:
- Open framework chassis on three wheels
- Pusher engine behind the pilot seat
- Strut-braced rigid aluminium wing with a conventional tail on a long boom
An open framework three-wheeled chassis supports the pilot seat and a pusher engine. A rigid aluminium wing is attached by struts, and a fabric-covered conventional empennage is carried on a long boom aft of the wing.
