The Lil’ Rascal by Merle B. Miller began flight testing in early 1978. This biplane makes use of a steeltube fuselage and tail section covered with Stits Poly-Fibre Dacron. The wings are constructed of spruce and plywood and are covered with the same fabric. The landing gear is the non-retractable tailwheel type, and seating is for two persons in a side-by-side open cockpit. The standard 85-hp engine turns a fixed-pitch prop.
