The Meyers Midget was a one-off small, low-powered, sporting single-seat sesquiplane, designed and built in the United States in 1926, incorporating several innovative structural features.
Stressed longitudinal spruce strips formed rounded upper and lower fuselage surfaces, so that the overall cross-section was roughly oval.
The fuselage and tail surfaces were fabric covered except for a veneered region around the open cockpit, set under the wing trailing edge.
[1] The Midget was powered by an air-cooled 32 hp (24 kW) Bristol Cherub on a steel tube mounting and cowled with its cylinders protruding.
The two wheels and bungee shock absorbers were mounted on a single axle with an inverted V-strut from its ends to the fuselage central girder.
