Design and development

The Skylark is a braced low-wing monoplane with a fixed tailwheel landing gear. [1] It is powered by a 125 hp (93 kW) Warner Scarab radial engine. [1] The enclosed cockpit has side-by-side seating for two. [1] It has a welded steel fuselage and wooden wings. [1] With other two-seat aircraft of the era having a better performance on smaller engines the Skylark did not enter production. [1] The sole example was currently airworthy in February 2010 with an owner in Versailles, Missouri.
