Here are some (on topic - no less) doodles of a small low wing.
inspired by Bruce King's tiny little BK-1..

It looks vaguely familiar. . .

Does look darn close but the Zephyr is a bit larger
at 19+ span and 17' long.

This one is a bit smaller.
call it 16 foot span and 15 feet long.
and maybe a full foot shorter in height.
I think it was 6o to 66 sq ft for the wing area is
about the same for both.

I just uploaded a cross section sketch that shows the
size a little (intended as a pun) better.

Guess/wish 500 pounds empty with a VW,
but
this is one place where a 912 and adjustable
prop would really rock.

Or spec the Rotax 914 (turbo!) and a higher
aspect ratio wing (longer span) for those
mini-U2 missions....
