Cunningham-Hall GA-36

The Cunningham-Hall GA-36 is an American two-seat monoplane modified from the GA-21M for the Guggenheim Safe Aircraft Competition.

Design and development
The GA-21M was a two-seat low-wing monoplane designed and built in 1934 powered by a 145 hp Warner Super Scarab radial piston engine. An all-metal aircraft it had a fixed conventional landing gear with a tailwheel. In 1935 the aircraft was rebuilt as the GA-36 for the Guggenheim Safe Aircraft Competition first flying on 2 January 1936. Part of the rebuild was a change from side-by-side to tandem seating and modified landing gear.

No further aircraft were built and failing to find a buyer it was sold in 1941 (advertised for $2,950). It was stripped of major components and dumped until the 1980s when it was recovered for preservation and public display.
