SITAR GY-100 Bagheera

The SITAR GY-100 Bagheera (named after Bagheera, a character in Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book[2]) was a light aircraft designed and built in France in the late 1960s.

[3][4] Designed by Yves Gardan, it was a low-wing, cantilever monoplane of conventional layout with fixed, tricycle undercarriage.

[2] Type certification was granted in 1971,[6] and Gardan hoped to market the Bagheera through his company, SITAR.

[2] However, with the oil crisis looming[6] and after the prototype disintegrated in flight,[5] Gardan abandoned development.
