The Hendy 281 Hobo was a British single-seat light monoplane designed by Basil B. Henderson and built by the Hendy Aircraft Company at Shoreham Airport in 1929. Only one aircraft was built, registered G-AAIG, and first flown in October 1929 by Edgar Percival.

It was a small low-wing cantilever monoplane with a fixed tailskid landing gear and powered by a 35 hp ABC Motors Scorpion II engine. It was rebuilt in 1934 with a 90 hp Pobjoy Cataract, mass balance ailerons and a modified landing gear.

Operational life

Under the ownership of Lord Patrick Stuart[1] it was entered in many races in the 1930s and in 1934 won a race between Hatfield and Cardiff at {{convert|125.4|mph}}.

In the summer months of 1935 the Hendy Hobo was operated out of Hall Caine Airport, Isle of Man.[1] Under the control of Flight lieutenant R. Duncanson,[1] a former Chief Flying Instructor at the London Air Park[1] and who had recently set up a flying school at Hall Caine.[1] The Hendy Hobo captivated visitors and locals alike by performing a series of aerobatics over Ramsey Bay.[1]

Loss

On 30 August 1940 it was destroyed by German bombing at Lympne Aerodrome.
