12/15/2015. Remarks by
Johan Visschedijk: "The CW-16 was essentially a three-seat version of the CW -12 series developed by Ted Wells and Herb Rawdon, but its greater utility could not overcome the depressed market.
CW-16K. Under the
TC 411 (issued April 1931), eleven aircraft of this model were built, these were powered with the 125 hp Kinner B-5 engine.
CW-16W. A single aircraft, fitted with an 110 hp Warner Scarab engine, was built under TC 429 (issued June 1931).
CW-16E. The highest-powered and final model of the CW-16 series, this was powered by an 165 hp Wright R-540E (J-6-5) engine. Ten were built under the TC 463 (issued February 1932)."
The following data relate to the Wright-powered version.
