Ercoupe Personal Bank Checks are now available direct from the manufacturer.
These are, obviously, based on pictures of one particular Ercoupe. However, other than color scheme, these are representative of the Ercoupe (Aircoupe, Alon, Mooney M10) fleet that still remains airworthy and actually flying today. The Ercoupe featured on these checks was manufactured in Riverdale, Maryland, in August of 1946. It still takes to the skies several times every month. These Ercoupe Checks start at only $22.99 a box for singles (duplicates are a bit higher).
There are usually also matching Ercoupe Address Labels available for only a few extra dollars:
Note that these are also representative of the Aircoupe and Alon versions of the original Ercoupe. There might, however, be slight variations observable, especially with the canopy mounting/sliding arrangement of the Alon. These are the only personal checks available (that we know of) with images of our favorite antique airplane.
Note that we mention the Mooney M-10 above. The Mooney variation still resembles an Ercoupe for the first half of the production run. Then they (Mooney) removed the “twin-tail” and replaced it with the traditional look of the Mooney “reverse” vertical stabilizer (and, some say, ruined the handling of a fine performing aircraft).
