What Aircraft is this? (unfortunately no pic)


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

Was at Caboolture today and saw a 19 reg experimental. It was a taildragger, low wing but the tail plane was actually more like a full wing. Looked a bit bizarre.

 

Cheers,

I thought so too Shags, until one visited our local. Slippery and impressive it may be, but he used an awful lot of tar to get it into the air. I don't want to think about how it would go landing in a paddock if the noise stopped.

Another Rutan design. There was another two seat similar design called the Dragon Fly.

 

Quick to build off plans and seemed like all the rage back in the late seventies early eighties.
