Mudry CAP 232
|
The CAP 232 is designed
by Auguste Mudry. After Mudry's bankruptcy in
1996, Akrotech Europe took over the CAP series
in May 1997, and in January 1999 changed name to
CAP Aviation. The CAP 232 is a single-seat
monoplane constructed entirely of timber and is
distinguishable by its low wing and rakish
vertical fin and rudder. |
