Cdr E.B.W. Leake. It was designed by Percival himself, and was strongly influenced by the <a href="/wiki/Hendy_302" title="Hendy 302">Hendy 302</a>, designed by Basil "Hendy" Henderson, which he had owned and raced. The new company did not have the facilities to build the Gull, so the prototype was produced by the <a href="/wiki/British_Aircraft_Company" title="British Aircraft Company">British Aircraft Company</a> of <a href="/wiki/Maidstone" title="Maidstone">Maidstone</a>, Kent, and the first 24 production machines were manufactured by <a href="/wiki/Parnall_Aircraft" class="mw-redirect" title="Parnall Aircraft">Parnall Aircraft</a> of <a href="/wiki/Yate" title="Yate">Yate</a>, Gloucestershire. In 1934 the Percival Aircraft Company moved to <a href="/wiki/Gravesend_Airport" title="Gravesend Airport">Gravesend Airport</a>, Kent, where it built its own Gulls,<sup id="cite_ref-jawa1938_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-jawa1938-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-jackson1974_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-jackson1974-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> with the last Gull built at Percival's new <a href="/wiki/Luton" title="Luton">Luton</a> works.<sup id="cite_ref-abasp91p13_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-abasp91p13-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Gull was a low-wing cantilever monoplane, constructed of wood with fabric covering. The wings tapered in both thickness and chord, with dihedral outboard of the centre section. They were constructed according to Basil Henderson's patent, and folded rearwards at the rear spar for storage. There were split flaps inboard. The fin and rudder were initially very similar to those of the Hendy 302, with a horn balance and a notable nick on the leading edge where that balance met the fin, but this was soon replaced by the final symmetrialc elliptical and unbalanced design. The horizontal surfaces were also rounded, and tailplane incidence was adjustable in flight for trim; the elevators were mounted on a common shaft.<sup id="cite_ref-jawa1938_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-jawa1938-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Harwood_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Harwood-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Although Gull variants were powered by five different engines, these were all inverted inline air-cooled types driving two-bladed propellers, making for a neatly faired installation. The rear fuselage was of square cross section with a rounded top. The glazed cabin joined smoothly into a raised dorsal fairing, and placed the pilot in front and two passenger seats, slightly staggered behind. Entry into the early models was via the sliding canopy. The main undercarriage was fixed and spatted, each wheel mounted on three struts in the early models; there was a small steerable tail wheel.<sup id="cite_ref-jawa1938_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-jawa1938-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The early models could be fitted with one of two 130 hp (97 kW) 4-cylinder engines, the <a href="/wiki/ADC_Cirrus" title="ADC Cirrus">Cirrus Hermes</a> IV, or the <a href="/wiki/De_Havilland_Gipsy_Major" title="De Havilland Gipsy Major">de Havilland Gipsy Major</a>.

The D.2 variants are known generically as the "Gull Four" (not "Gull IV"). That was despite the Javelin 6-cylinder engine in the Gull Four Mk IIA, and that before the war the Gipsy Major-powered variant was known as the "Gull Major". In 1934, one Gull was modified with cabin doors, revised and shorter glazing, and a faired, single-strut main undercarriage. This version was known as the Gull Four Mk III, (retrospectively P.1D), and those refinements were incorporated in all later Gulls.<sup id="cite_ref-jawa1938_1-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-jawa1938-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-jackson1974_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-jackson1974-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The final variant was the D.3 "Gull Six", similar to the D.2 "Gull Four Mk III" with the revised canopy and undercarriage, but with the much more powerful 200 hp (149 kW) <a href="/wiki/De_Havilland_Gipsy_Six" title="De Havilland Gipsy Six">de Havilland Gipsy Six</a> 6-cylinder engine. This had the same length and span as the Gull Major variants, but was 195 lb (88 kg) heavier and much faster at 178 mph (286 km/h). One Gull Six (VT-AGV) had the cabin replaced with a tandem pair of open cockpits.
