Fernic T-9
The Fernic T-9, also called the Fernic F.T.9, (Fernic Tandem model 9) is an early three surface aircraft, having two lifting wings in tandem as well as a conventional tailplane. It was a light twin-engined craft intended for flight distance record setting.
==Design and development==
Designer George Fernic was a Romanian aviator who developed the T-9 after emigrating to the United States from Germany.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://earlyaviators.com/efernic.htm )〕
The Fernic T-9 can be seen as a conventional twin engined monoplane with the addition of a long nose mounted canard foreplane to provide two lifting surfaces in tandem. The canard was designed to stall ahead of the main wing, reducing the risk of stalling or spinning the entire aircraft. The plywood covered aircraft also featured tricycle landing gear with a castering nose wheel. A spring steel tail skid was added to protect the tail.
Fernic tested the design with professor Alexander Klemin in the wind tunnels of the Guggenheim School of Aeronautics, New York University in 1926.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.aviatori.ro/dict_pers.php?sel=F )〕 For the transatlantic effort, the upper engine nacelles were able to be removed and powered with a small outboard motor for water ditching.〔
