I for one am very interested. Please let us know if you change you mind
about making the plans available. I would be willing to pay for your
efforts.

Dear Tony,

I'm afraid you've misunderstood my intent. I paid $80 for a set of
'Texas Parasol' plans that turned out to be worthless. At that time
there was quite a bit of interest in the design. By the time they
encountered the errors they had quite a bit of time and metal invested
in the project. I corrected the errors and made copies available to
some of those builders. But having lost all confidence in the
'designer' I elected not to build the thing. Later, I re-drew the
whole thing (about two dozen drawings) showing alternative methods for
attaching the tail, wing and landing gear.

The whole story is in the various archives and deserves your
attention, especially so with regard to the many contradictions, most
in the 'designers' own words.

I believe there is still a Group dedicated to the Texas Parasol. I
will dig out the drawings and see if they can be posted in the
archives there.
