Muniz M-9
The Muniz M-9 was a two-seat training biplane with tandem open cockpit and powered by a 200 hp (149 kW) 130 hp (197 kW) de Havilland Gipsy Six engine. Designed by Lieutenant-Colonel Antonio Muniz, a serving officer in the Brazilian Air Force, as an advanced trainer and was very similar to his earlier M-7 primary trainer. It was first flown in 1937 and a small production run was built for the air force by Cia Nacional de Navegacao Costiera.
