__NOTOC__ The Fairchild Model 41 Foursome was a light aircraft developed in the United States in the late 1920s and produced as the Model 42 Foursome. It was a conventional high-wing, strut-braced monoplane with fixed tailwheel undercarriage. The pilot and three passengers were seated within a fully enclosed cabin, and the aircraft generally resembled a scaled-down version of Fairchild's successful FC-2 design. Two prototypes were built as the Model 41 and Model 41A leading to the Model 42 production version which was built in a small series. This production version differed from the prototypes in having a redesigned, strut-braced empennage in place of the wire-braced unit of the earlier aircraft, and a more powerful version of the Wright Whirlwind powerplant. ==Variants== ;Model 41 Foursome:First prototype four seat cabin monoplane, powered by a Wright J-5, one built ;Model 41A Foursome:Second prototype four seat cabin monoplane, powered by a Wright J-5, one built. ;Model 42 Foursome:Production four seat cabin monoplane, powered by Wright J-6 engines, six built and two converted from the 41 and 41A. 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「Fairchild 42」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
