The original Buttercup was built by Steve Wittman in 1938. Production rights were sold to Fairchild Aircraft but due to wartime obligations, they did not develop the design. This replica version was designed by EAA member Earl Luce for home builders. This photo is copyright © Gary Vincent, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
