Регистрационный номер: CX-AGI [2] A photo of the only aircraft to be entirely designed and built in Uruguay, the Neybar N-1 CX-AGI. The design was inspired by an engineer, Fernando R.Barrandeguy, who was in 1945 under government contract to build roads and bridges at twelve different locations around the country. An aircraft would make inspection of these works much easier and, since it was impossible to obtain one, he decided to manufacture one. Barrandeguy made studies in the USA and solicited the aid of a mechanic, Dagoberte Moll. A 125hp Lycoming engine was imported for the basically wooden four-seater. Painted red, it first flew in 1947 and remained in regular, reliable service until 1965. Its name was derived from Neyelof, another engineer in Barrandeguy's company.

Регистрационный номер: CX-AGI [2] The photograph reproduced here was submitted by Walter K. van Tilborg who knew that it showed an aircraft under construction somewhere in South America just after the Second World War. The publication in ARCHIVE no.3/83 of the photo of Neybar CX-AGI has surely identified the type beyond any doubt, the unusual arrangement of the wing struts and landing gear is particularly notable. Many thanks to Mr.van Tilborg then, for a unique shot of the only indigenous Uruguayan design actually under construction.
