The Stewart Foo Fighter JD2FF is a single-seat biplane homebuilt aircraft design that emulates fighter aircraft of WWI.

The Foo Fighter was developed using similar construction features as the Stewart Headwind. The first aircraft built used a Ford Falcon 200 CID engine that proved to be too heavy. A Franklin 130 hp engine was used next, but the engine went out of production. The final design was changed to accommodate a Lycoming O-235 or O-320 engine. [1]
The Foo Fighter was demonstrated for over 30 hours during the one-week Experimental Aircraft Association Convention in Oshkosh, Wisconsin In 1972. [2]
