Children pages to inherit the page type of parent?

How can I set the default page type of children pages to inherit the page type of the parent.

Not sure if I follow what you are asking entirely, but it sounds like $default_parent and $default_child are what you are after.

What I want is if I have a Products page with sub pages i.e.
Products
> Product 1
> Product 2I want "Product 1" and "Product 2" to inherit the page type of "Products" so that whenever I add in a new product it defaults to the correct page type rather than the "Page" type.

You can include this in any page class and it will restrict the children allowed to whatever is in the array:
static $allowed_children = array('ProductPage');

BBC, did you check the link I gave? The very first example shows how to do exactly what you want, using both mine and howard's suggestions in tandem.

Thanks, I did look at the link but I was confused at first glance. Looking back I now have what I want, it was as you said.. the first part i.e.
static $allowed_children = array("BlogEntry");
static $default_child = "BlogEntry";
