Technical

The Noury N-75 was conceived as a side-by-side two-seater training and utility airplane ready for the post-Second World War market. The design rights to the Noury N-75 were sold to Fleet in 1945, when manufacture and testing began. Some design changes were made, and the aircraft went on the market in 1946 as the Canuck. Fleet also designed skis and floats for the type. Of the 225 Canucks built before production stopped in 1949, most were sold in Canada where some were still flying in the 1990s. The side-by-side seating in the Fleet 80 Canuck was unusual for the period even though it was a far better arrangement for instruction than placing the instructor either in front of or behind the student
