Blackburn B-2
The Blackburn B-2 was a British biplane side-by-side trainer aircraft of the 1930s. Designed and built by Blackburn Aircraft, 42 were built.
==Development==
The Blackburn B-2 was developed by Blackburn as a successor for its earlier Bluebird IV trainer, retaining the layout and side-by-side seating of the earlier aircraft, but having a semi-monocoque all-metal fuselage, instead of the metal and fabric covered fuselage used by the earlier aircraft. The single-bay biplane wings were of similar structure to those of the Bluebird IV and could be folded for easy storage. Leading edge slots were fitted to the upper wing to improve low-speed handling, with ailerons on the lower wings only. The conventional landing gear was fixed, with the mainwheels supported on telescopic legs and a spung tailskid.〔Jackson 1968, p. 330.〕 The prototype B-2 (registered ''G-ABUW'') first flew on 10 December 1932,〔Donald 1997, p. 127.〕 powered by a de Havilland Gipsy III engine, although the de Havilland Gipsy Major and 120 hp Cirrus Hermes IV engines were also fitted to production aircraft.〔〔Jackson 1968, p. 336.〕 Testing proved successful, with the aircraft proving to be very manoeuvrable, and the first production aircraft flew in 1932.〔Jackson 1968, p. 331.〕
