Taylor Chummy

[2] Fixed, tailskid undercarriage was fitted, initially with a through-axle, but later with divided main units.

[3] About nine examples were built, but the exact number is uncertain due to many records being lost in a 1937 factory fire.

[3] On April 24, 1928, Gordon Taylor crashed a Chummy at Ford Airport, Dearborn, Michigan.

[5] His passenger, Aaron Rosenbleet, was killed instantly, and Taylor died of his injuries shortly after reaching hospital.

[6] The Chummy was expensive and did not sell well, leading to the bankruptcy of the Taylor Brothers company in 1930.
