Recognition (WEFT)
| W — Wings | Low-mounted, tapered |
|---|---|
| E — Engines | 1 × piston, nose-mounted |
| F — Fuselage | 7.15 m fuselage |

WEFT is AircraftIQ's four-point recognition method — how it works.
Spot it by:
- Small low-wing cantilever monoplane built of corrugated duralumin
- Straight-tapered wing with nearly square tips and full-span Doppelflügel control surfaces
- Pilot and passenger side by side in an open cockpit with an arch overhead
A small all-metal low-wing monoplane with corrugated skin and a cowled inline engine. Its tail layout is assumed conventional, as no source read states it.
