__NOTOC__ The New Standard D-29 was a trainer aircraft produced in the USA from 1929 to 1930. It was a conventional biplane design with a fuselage constructed from duralumin members riveted and bolted together, and the wings were made with spruce spars and bass-wood and plywood built-up ribs. Deliberately built to be rugged and simple the D-29 was moderately successful, but had to compete with the Swallow TP. ==Variants== * D-29 - initial version 85 hp Cirrus III engine, one built. * * D-29A - production aircraft with 100 hp Kinner K-5. Six supplied to US Navy as the NT-1 trainer in 1930.〔Swanborough and Bowers 1976, p.456.〕〔Note: The US Navy designation NT-2 does not refer to a version of the D-29, but to two New Standard D-25s captured from smugglers and used by the US Coast Guard.Swanborough and Bowers 1976, p.456.〕 * * D-29 Special - D-29A with Menasco B-4. * * D-29 S - Sport version with coupe cockpit (also known as D-25C). * D-31 Special - D-29A with Kinner B-5. * D-32 Special - three-seater D-29A with Wright J-6. * D-33 Special - three-seater D-29A with Kinner B-5. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Standard D-29」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
