The Akro
was designed by Clayton Stephens in 1967 for for Women's Aerobatic
Champion Margaret Richie. In the early 1970s it was touted as
the plane to beat the Pitts Special. The Akro was marketed to
homebuilders.
The Akro design is the basis for the current
mid-wing aerobatic aircraft. Leo Loudenslager developed a derivative
known as the Laser 200. The Akro
also influenced Walter Extra's design of the Extra
230. |
