The Weick W-1A NS67, a twin-boom tricycle with Pobjoy radial pusher engine, had several features which were similar to Hammond's safety 'plane design.

The Hammond Safety 'Plane prototype 15151 was unlike anything produced up to that time. Long fairings on the undercarriage main wheels aligned with the twin booms on the ground.

This frontal view shows the pitot boom over the cabin and the front panel on the windscreen, probably made narrow to incorporate a sliding clear-vision panel.

The senior personnel giving critical examination to 15151 show the interest engendered by its unique features.

The Ryan Speedster two-seat sport trainer biplane, formerly the Parks P-2A, was the first aircraft produced by the Hammond company in 1931 after taking over the Detroit Corporation which failed in the Depression.

Dean Hammond's first design was the Hammond 100 three-seat biplane with 100 hp Kinner radial engine - but it did not go into production.
