Murphy Rebel

The Murphy Rebel is an all-metal, 2-seat, high wing aircraft constructed using semi-monocoque construction techniques. Built for strength and longevity, the Rebel is designed to endure tough bush plane-like conditions with low maintenance costs. Designed by Darryl Murphy to accommodate a variety of powerplants including the Rotax 912, Lycoming O-235 and O-320. The Rebel is easily stored or trailered due to its removable wings and folding tailfeathers. The cabin is a comfortable 44" wide and provides a large wraparound instrument panel, skylights, and large doors. Pre-aligned punched holes eliminate the need for jigs and special tools, making the Rebel a simple aircraft to build. The Rebel is at home on floats and skis or on standard wheels.
