Fisher Youngster
Well established Fisher Flying
Products has reproduced the flying qualities of many classic
airplanes in structurally sound and extremely affordable aircraft.
These ultra light and experimental aircraft have proven aerodynamic
stability and desirable flight characteristics.
From the company’s modern plant in Edgeley, North Dakota, the
components for 15 classic replicas are manufactured by trained and
experienced craftsmen. Research and development for new aircraft is
on-going. Fisher Flying Products’ entire line of aircraft is sold
throughout the United States and in 30 foreign countries.
All models are available in two build-it-yourself forms:
A standard construction kit, which offers the builder the experience
of assembling the entire aircraft from pre-cut, shaped and slotted
wooden pieces, machined hardware, a formed fibreglass cowling and
aluminium fuel tank.
A quick-build kit which contains a number of pre-fabricated
components in addition to the standard pre-cut and formed parts
found in the standard kit.
Both kits come complete with easy-to-follow instructions and the
industry’s finest full scale-full size blueprints. These blueprints
allow the builder to essentially build the aircraft right on top of
the blueprints with standard household tools.
Standard construction kits can be completed by the average builder
in 400–500 hours and quick-build kits reduce the construction time
to 200–300 hours.
Flying The Youngster
This airplane offers you four-cycle dependability with the pleasure
of flying a light, agile performer. The Youngster flies on the time
proven 2315 airfoil with stainless wires and a bubble canopy. Enjoy
the freedom of an open cockpit on warm summer days, and the warmth
of a fully enclosed cockpit for comfortable flying in the winter.
Experience the nostalgic beauty of the Youngster.
It was designed to be affordable, but with the high quality you’ve
come to know of Fisher Flying Products. The Youngster is gentle on
the ground, but allows you to play with it in the air. The Youngster
employs all wood construction using a Warner truss frame with 1/8"
birch ply skins making the lightest, strongest fuselage available.
Stringers are carefully placed along the fuselage sides and top
turtledeck to form the attractive fabric shaped fuselage.
