Built by Ben Jones around 1937. Damaged on or soon after its maiden flight. Acquired by White Aircraft, of Leroy, NY, which rebuilt it. The flying tiger artwork and Chinese characters were added when Chinese pilot Lee Ya-Ching used it to raise money for her homeland during its war with Japan. The S-125 was cancelled from the register soon after US entered WW2 as White concentrated on making components for gliders. Company closed after the war.
