Sportster began development while Rearwin was still certifying the previous model: the <a href="/wiki/Rearwin_Speedster" title="Rearwin Speedster">Rearwin Speedster</a>. The Speedster had been designed for performance, so the company focused on another, more basic, model to provide reliable income.<sup id="cite_ref-WRIGHT_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-WRIGHT-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Page / location: 123">&#58;&#8202;123&#8202;</span></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FJournal_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FJournal-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> This model was to become the Sportster, with design work beginning in 1934. </p><p>As the Rearwin company was occupied trying to certify the Speedster, initial work was contracted out to Henry Weeks of Stevenson-Weeks Air Service.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The resulting design first flew on April 30, 1935.<sup id="cite_ref-WRIGHT_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-WRIGHT-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Page / location: 125–127">&#58;&#8202;125–127&#8202;</span></sup> </p><p>The design of the Rearwin Speedster bore a coincidental resemblance to the competing <a href="/wiki/Porterfield_35" title="Porterfield 35">Porterfield Flyabout</a>. The Flyabout had started as the <b>Wyandotte Pup,</b> designed by engineer Noel Hockaday and built by students at <a href="/wiki/Wyandotte_High_School" title="Wyandotte High School">Wyandotte High School</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-History_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-History-4"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Ed Porterfield had seen the finished design, bought the rights to it, started the Porterfield company to build it, and hired Hockaday to develop the plane into the Flyabout. Hockaday had previously assisted engineer Douglas Webber at <a href="/wiki/American_Eagle_Aircraft_Corporation" title="American Eagle Aircraft Corporation">American Eagle Aircraft Corporation</a>, both of whom later moved to Rearwin Aircraft. Their influence at Rearwin resulted in design elements that were used in the Sportster, thus resembling the Hockaday-designed Flyabout.<sup id="cite_ref-WRIGHT_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-WRIGHT-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Page / location: 101, 127–128">&#58;&#8202;101,&#8202;127–128&#8202;</span></sup> </p><p>In 1936, the Sportster was certified to take pontoons at the request of <a href="/wiki/Cluett_Peabody_%26_Company" title="Cluett Peabody &amp; Company">George B.
