Cherokee II is more like 12.2 meters

Cherokee II N373Y

Don't forget the Schweizer 2-22 or the 1-19 and the 1-20, but I think the
latter might have been a one off. Then there's the Baker-McMillan Cadet
and the SG-38 and especially the SG-38A; it was a vast improvement over
the original and it should be handicapped.
