Paul Poberezny designed the Pober Pixie in response to the energy crisis in the 1970’s.The Pixie was to be the first in a series of economy aircraft that would meet the new demand for fuel efficiency as part of the EAA design project entitled Project Econoplane.The Pober Pixie was manufactured in record time.The project started in January of 1974 in the EAA’s shop.The maiden flight was 6 months later in July that year, just prior to the EAA Convention in Oshkosh.
