Currie Wot

The Wot was designed by J R (Joe) Currie, and two examples were built by Cinque Ports Aviation Limited at Lympne Aerodrome in 1937.

G-APNT was soon re-engined with a four-cylinder 60 hp Walter Mikron II engine and was also trialled using floats.

The aircraft was restored to flying condition and flew again for the first time in 2008 with an original Walter Mikron engine.

They were powered by 115 hp Lycoming O-235 engines with dummy exhausts and other modifications as 0.83 scale replicas.

The Currie Super Wot is a clipped-wing variant with X-bracing between the undercarriage V-struts instead of a through axle.

Nick Bloom wrote a series of articles about his Super Wot which appeared in Pilot Magazine under the title 'Diary of a Homebuilder'.

Currie Wot built with modifications to resemble an RAF S.E.5 A for use in the film Darling Lili
