2024 Chilton DW 1 Replica

The Chilton D.W.1 Replica Classic is the world's only full-metal recreation of the 1930s wooden air racer. While the original was powered by a 40hp Ford engine, this replica features a Rotax 912, 80hp engine while maintaining its classic lines. Modern upgrades include a steerable tailwheel, differential toe brakes, telescopic suspension, push-pull rod controls, and a larger fuel tank for long-range flights. Load-tested to meet modern standards, it remains in bare aluminium, ready for admiration or a classic racing paint scheme. Registered as 19-1937, it stands as both a functional aircraft and a tribute to vintage air racing.
