Renard R.17

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Renard R.17 was a Belgian four-seat cabin monoplane designed and built by Societé Anonyme des Avions et Moteurs Renard. The R.17 was a high-wing cantilever monoplane, the cantilever wing an unusual feature when most contemporary aircraft still had braced wings. Designed as a high-speed transport for fresh flowers, no aircraft were ordered and the only R.17 was retained by the company until 1946.
