Huntington h 12

[nickhawk]

Hello folks,

A visit to the workshop of George Kandylakis got me going again.....While searching his endless plan files  for a golden age single engine airplane to build and power with a Gasparin 28 Co2 motor, I bumbed onto the Huntington H12 .....This is a peanut scale plan which I enlarged 20% in order to use my Gasparin in it. Ofcourse patience being absent with me I started yesterday 31st of December and actually new year found me working on the wing of the Huntington......

While the tail is drying on the board I got a couple of pictures of the raw parts I built so far ,and collecting courage to start sanding.......The balsa I had available is not the lightest one but it will do.

The only problem is I cannot find any documentation online......

Hi nickhawk
I was able to find this drawing...
http://www.aerofiles.com/hunt-hd12.jpg

and there's an entry with quite a bit of written detail on Aerofiles (scroll down alphabetically) :
http://www.aerofiles.com/_h.html

Interested if anyone finds more info or a pic of the real aircraft (Aerofiles says 3 were built/registered)

hope that helps anyway

There is a bit of info at this website too: The Huntington H12 (1922)

Nice subject!

Cheers, Ramses

Thank you all for your help it seems that there is not enough information about this plane.The fact that only three were built makes every hope for at least some photos rather minimal to nil.....
