Messerschmitt M 17

General Aviation and Light Aircraft

The Messerschmitt M 17 was a German single-engine high-wing sports monoplane designed by Willy Messerschmitt at Bamberg in 1925. It won many competitions and allowed Messerschmitt to build his first factory. It was powered by a 22 kW Bristol Cherub II two-cylinder air-cooled horizontally-opposed piston engine and, by the specification, had an empty mass of 186 kg and a maximum speed of 140 km/h. A replica built by the Messerschmitt Foundation made its first flight on 14 April 2004 and appears regularly at the International Aerospace Exhibition in Berlin.
