Design and development

The EC-1 Aircoupe was a parasol wing monoplane powered by an Anzani engine which first flew in 1928. Designed by Joseph Cato, it had an open cockpit with a removable cabin enclosure. The airplane was known as the Airsport when flown without the cabin enclosure. The EC-1 was also available with a Kinner K-5 engine. One prototype is known, but more may have been produced.
