Meyer Little Toot

The Meyer Little Toot is a midget homebuilt biplane that was designed by George Meyer (1916-1982).
Design and development
The first Little Toot prototype was started by George Meyer in 1952. Along with drawings, a scale model was built of the aircraft during the design phase. The aircraft was named Little Toot after a character that liked doing figure eights in a Disney movie. It was designed with aerobatics in mind and is stressed for 10g loads.
The Little Toot is a single seat, open cockpit, biplane with conventional landing gear. The fuselage is welded steel tubing aluminum covering. The original tail section is a metal monocoque truss section from a Luscome 8A. The wings use spruce spars with wooden ribs and are fabric covered. The upper wing is swept back eight degrees. The lower wing has three degrees of dihedral with nearly ful-length ailerons. The landing gear and wheel pants were sourced from a Cessna 140 taildragger.
