Nobody wanted to fly this; the engine was behind the pilot and the prop shaft ran through the cockpit, between the pilot's legs. It was also difficult to get out, if you needed to bail; the doors were standard automobile doors, and just barely large enough for the pilot to squeeze through with his chute....
