Re: Waco F series
The 'F' series had an airframe which was smaller and about 450 pounds (200 kg) lighter than the 'O' series, while continuing to provide accommodation for three persons in tandem open cockpits.
A similar performance to the earlier model was obtained on the power of smaller and more economical engines.[Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien]

Many further sub-models followed with more powerful engines of up to 225 hp (168 kW).
