Introduction | 1984 |
The Baker Bobcat and the follow-on Baker Supercat are American homebuilt aircraft that were designed by Bobby Baker.
The Baker Supercat is a low-wing, strut-braced, open cockpit, conventional landing gear-equipped aircraft with all-wooden construction. The aircraft was originally designed to be an ultralight aircraft and the wings are removable. In 1994 Bowdler Aviation purchased the rights to the plans.[1][2]
In 1994, an enclosed Supercat with a modified NACA 4415 airfoil and an inverted 50 hp (37 kW) Rotax 503 installation engine was awarded Grand Champion Light Plane at the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh airshow.[3]
