The Aeronca C-1 Cadet was a high performance version of the Aeronca C-2 developed by Aeronca and first flown in 1931. DevelopmentThe C-1 was a wire-braced high-wing monoplane with a fixed tail skid landing gear and powered by a {{convert|36|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} Aeronca E-113 flat-twin piston engine. Apart from a more powerful engine the C-1 also had a strengthened fuselage and reduced span wings compared with the C-2. Only three were built and following the death of a company executive when the prototype crashed, one was scrapped and the other was converted into an Aeronca C-2N.
