You don't mean the little Macchis from the fifties, do you? They were
high wing but kind of swept forwards.


Nope, and I'll be darned if I could find it, even with a while
searching for it. I remember it from an article in AOPA, I think. It
was probably 5-7 years ago. On the cover, as I recall.

It looked a lot like this, but it was not this one:

I could be all wrong, but I thought it was an Italian design, that had
been certified for a while in like form, anyway. I thought it had a
name like Cappra, or something.


Don't remember seeing it though I'm sure it's in my sport aviation pile
somewhere.
The link you posted above *is* the Malmo as it was modified in the UK as
the ARV, I'm pretty sure. Nice to see it being mae still. Should be a
pretty good LSA. If I were in the market for something like that the
simplicity would appeal to me in a big way.
