The Lasco Lascondor (also frequently known by the misspelling "Lasconder")[1] was a 1930s Australian 8-seat passenger and mail carrier aircraft built by the Larkin Aircraft Supply Company (Lasco) at Coode Island, Victoria.
It is claimed to be the first multi-engined aircraft designed and built in the Southern Hemisphere.
[2] Development of the Lascondor began in June 1928, concurrently with the company's Lascoter;[3] the two aircraft had 90% commonality of structural parts.
[2] Like the Lascoter the Lascondor was a high-wing monoplane with a tubular steel structure, featuring a tailwheel undercarriage and a fully enclosed cabin for the passengers and the pilot.
The Lascondor also had greater fuel capacity and a slightly longer fuselage with a redesigned cabin to accommodate an extra row of seats.
