The Heath Center Wing, developed from earlier mid-wing racing aircraft, was popular with those able to fly one. The aircraft was also available in simplified kit form pioneered by Heath. Unfortunately 1933 was the depths of the US Depression and only about six aircraft were built (plus an unknown number of kits).
