J.Wegg General Dynamics Aircraft and Their Predecessors Since 1912 (Putnam)

Nacelle Pusher

   Two similar 'nacelle pusher' biplane designs were built and flown during 1913. Both featured paired four-wheel/skid undercarriages and had the elevator and twin rudders supported by a bamboo frame extending from the wing centre section. The single-seater, also referred to as the Standard Biplane, had a 10ft longer-span upper wing, a 65hp Kirkham engine, and a nacelle mounted in between the wings. The three-seater, powered by a 90hp Austro-Daimler engine, had the longer nacelle attached directly to the lower wing.

(Single-seater): Span 37ft; weight empty 900 lb; maximum speed 58mph, endurance 2hr.
