You might research the articles in Sport Aviation. The exact replica
according to the test pilot Carl Pascarelli (or something like that)
it was a bit of a handful.


If that were so, and someone really wanted to build one, there always is
the possibility of taming it a little. That is assuming that the person is
not an exact scale kind of nut.

Add a little to the fin, and lengthen the wings a little, and maybe make it
a little thicker, too. Get the CG a little more forward, if that is a
problem. (like it is in many golden racers)

If the changes are done in relatively small percentage changes, most will
still recognize it, and few will notice any difference.
