Here are a couple of photos of Brian (Sorry dude, I don't know your last name) doing low flybys. Taking photos of planes is quite challenging!! I'll have to bring my camera out more often and practice.
Andre, you should be able to get my email address from my user profile now. The video of your nice landing is 34 MB. If that's too big to transer, then the video of your not so nice landing is only 11 MB..... :D :D

Dave Reese mentioned it may be an "Ultrasport"
Any thoughts?

It's not a kougar (tail's wrong) and it's not an UltraSport (canopy on an ultrasport is set back from the firewall at the front edge) also, the wing on this one seems to be tapered and swept more than either the Utrasport of Kougar's wings...

It's a mystery!!:confused: When I saw it on the week-end, I thought the wing planform looked familiar and thought maybe it was an ultrasport but after looking at the pics Tom posted, it's definately not. It's individual elements look very familiar.....wing looks sort of Ultrasport, tail similar but not quite Kougar etc...but altogether I have no idea. It's got me thinking though and I won't rest till we know for sure:p

Hey, here's a thought...maybe it's someone's own design...;) Whatever it is, it flies well...
Dave, don't loose too much sleep over this...

Own Design:confused: ???.... I don't think I've ever heard of that one. Does that have something to do with that urban legend called "scratch building" that I heard of once?:rolleyes:
You must be talking about an ARF or RTF that they removed the factory stickers from.....or something? :confused:
