In 1935, Vultee produced a light
bomber derivative of their single-engined passenger transport,
the Vultee V-1, which, while demonstrating good performance,
was only sold in small numbers owing to restrictions placed on
the use of single-engined aircraft for scheduled passenger transport
operations. The resulting aircraft, the Vultee V-11, retained
the single-engined, low wing format and all-metal stressed skin
structure of the V-1. It combined a new fuselage with accommodation
for the three crew members under a long greenhouse canopy with
the wings and tail surfaces of the Vultee V-1 |
