Hinkler designed and built the Ibis with the assistance of R.H. Bound at
Hamble Aerodrome in Hampshire. The wing was designed by Basil Henderson and built by Hendy Aircraft at
Shoreham Airport. It was a two-seat high-wing monoplane made of wood and powered by two
Salmson AD.9 radials. The two engines were strut mounted back-to-back above the fuselage, one driving a pusher propeller, the other a tractor propeller. The Ibis
registered G-AAIS was first flown from Hamble in May 1930 and later stored in the garden of Hinkler's house in Southampton. According to the aircraft's registration with the
Civil Aviation Authority, it was deregistered in December 1933. In 1953, it was found in a semi-derelict condition in the garden but was scrapped in 1959. ==References==
