This aircraft was designed by Steve Wittman in 1970 for the then new Formula V racing category. It was a fabric covered, welded steel tube construction, and proved very successful in competitions. Several others Witts Vs have since been built and raced. The model represents Wittmans own prototype, N3259, now residing in the EAA museum in Oshkosh, USA.
