The
Barracuda, made entirely of spruce and plywood, is a fast, high performance,
side by side two place with retractable, tricycle gear. Rated for limited
acrobatics, it has a 200 MPH cruise speed and 2,100 FPM rate of climb with
a Lycoming O540 Engine. Designed by RAF pilot, Geoff Siers, to fly like
a fighter, power may vary from 200 to 300 horsepower. A stall speed of 62
makes landing easy. The comfortable 40 inch wide cockpit, with the sound
deadening properties of wood, makes it a wonderful cross-country tourer.
The structure is elegant and simple, like a model airplane, with no complex
jigging. The Barracuda won the "most outstanding new design" at Oshkosh.
Aircraft Spruce & Specialty Co. is the distributor for materials kits and
component parts.
