It is a "Pregnant Guppy" bi-plane. :fishing:
Would be a neat scale project that no one would have ever built before. :newstuff:

Hey Alvin,
Could you at least tell us how many people that death trap could hold. ;)
I think that I remember seeing a picture of that plane in an old old Popular Mechanics magazine or some similar publication.
It the prize gets up to twenty points, I am going to the library and do some deep research. :wacko: :blink:

Lester,
I really don't know for sure about the number of crew/passengers.
Looks like it could hold two regular people or four dear friends.
Remember: "Friends who fly together, die together".
The prize points are now up to 13.
I can give yall another little hint.
This mystery aircraft design did not use a rudder.
