__NOTOC__ The Maestranza Central de Aviación HF XX-02 was a military trainer aircraft developed in Chile in the 1950s.〔Taylor 1989, p.431〕 ==Design and development== Designed by Hugo Fuentes〔''The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Aircraft'' p.1997〕 (hence the HF in the designation),〔 the HF XX-02 was a conventional, low-wing cantilever monoplane of mixed construction with fixed tailwheel undercarriage.〔 The pilot and instructor sat side by side.〔 Two prototypes were constructed at El Bosque Air Base, designated XX-02 and XX-02B.〔Fernández 2003, p.2〕 Development was abandoned due to difficulties maneuvering at lower altitudes, which in one case, led to a crash in which the instructor was killed while attempting to land after a tight turn at low altitude. The design was subsequently refined by Francisco Bravo〔 and an improved version, the HFB XX-02 flew in 1958 powered by a Continental O-470 engine in place of the Ranger L-440 that powered the original.〔 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「Maestranza Central de Aviación HF XX-02」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
