About the Melmoth Aircraft Melmoth 2
The Melmoth 2 is a one-of-a-kind experimental aircraft designed and built by Peter Garrison, longtime editor and columnist for Flying magazine. Constructed over more than a decade beginning in the 1980s, this sleek single-engine composite aircraft represents the pinnacle of homebuilt performance optimization, incorporating lessons learned from Garrison's earlier Melmoth 1 project. The design emphasizes efficiency and speed, featuring a retractable landing gear, a Continental IO-550 engine, and a streamlined fuselage that achieves cruise speeds approaching 200 knots while maintaining excellent fuel economy.
What sets the Melmoth 2 apart is its meticulous attention to aerodynamic refinement and weight reduction, embodying decades of Garrison's engineering insights shared through his widely-read technical columns. The aircraft's performance envelope includes a never-exceed speed of 250 knots and a maximum structural cruising speed of 200 knots, impressive figures for a homebuilt single. Its low stall speeds and docile handling characteristics make it practical for everyday flying despite its high-performance capabilities.
SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframe and operator, with the sole observed operator.
