Was looking though the aerofiles section on american aircraft and come
accross there 2 lightweights. Any other references online to these?
Thanks Pat



I have a pic of the Pea Pod in a book by Raoul Hoffman, but I lent it to a
frined. I'll post the pic when I get it back.
The Book is an old EAA publication, though, (about 1960 or so) so they
might have something on it.
It looks more like a ground effect flyer than anything else IIRC. Canard
with small, low aspect ration surfaces, the pilot lies prone, i think, and
the engine is buried in the fin turning a tractor prop. I'm sure I've seen
the Sebring in an old gliding book, too....

I'll post them whe I can find them.
