Sweden it is Adapted from a 1930's American aircraft.

[Ridge Runner]

Adapted from a Cruiser?

[skytrain10]

Adapted from a Cruiser?

No, something altogether older...1930's aircraft which had a radial engine. In fact the original challenge aircraft also had a radial.

[Lightning Mate]

Was that radial a Wright J5?

[Ridge Runner]

So, originally an American Eagle Eaglet 31?

[Lightning Mate]

Was it a Cessna BW?

[skytrain10]

Was that radial a Wright J5?

2 different radials were used, but neither was a Wright.

So, originally an American Eagle Eaglet 31?

No, the aircraft was (in my view) more well known.

Was it a Cessna BW?

No
