Comments: A
well maintained and cared for 1946 Ercoupe 415-C. The Ercoupe (E and
R coming from the company's name: Engineering and Research
Corporation) was one of the most unusual-and controversial-light
airplanes ever built. It was designed by Fred E. Weick, one of
aviation's foremost engineers, who decided to solve with one bold
stroke the biggest single cause of aviation fatalities: the stall,
followed by spin, at altitudes too low to permit recovery. The
Ercoupe was designed to be stall-proof and spin-proof.
The
Ercoupe was noticeably faster than its contemporaries and quite
comfortable and easy to fly. One nice touch was that the cockpit
canopy could be opened in flight, producing much the same sensation
as driving a convertible with the top down. It was a nice looking,
aluminum fuselage with cloth wings, and it was true that it would
neither stall nor spin. The major thrust of the sales effort was "anyone
can fly," and cases without end were cited in which pilots who
had never had a previous lesson soloed in three hours, or two, or
even one. As some owners began to metalize the wings, the factory
did produce some later models with metal wings.
