Norman NAC-1 Freelance


The Freelance was a promising design which failed to make it to production status. It was basically an upgraded version of the Britten-Norman BN-3 Nymph (1 built) which had first flown in 1969 powered by a 115hp(86kW) Lycoming O-235-C1B. The prototype Freelance (G-NACI) in fact was a conversion of the Nymph airframe. The second example (G-NACA) is designated NAC-2. Both these aircraft remain airworthy.
