The smallest biplane ever flown is the Bumble Bee II, designed and built by Robert H Starr of Tempe, Arizona, USA. The plane was 2.69-m (8-ft 10-in) long, with a wingspan of 1.68 m (5 ft 6 in). On May 8, 1988 after flying to a height of 120 m (400 ft) the Bumble Bee II crashed and was totally destroyed. The pilot suffered serious injuries, but went on to make a full recovery.
