Hey Earnest, (he said, changing the subject)
Do you have the plans for the Peanut Scale Dyke Delta?
I've wanted to build that one for years, but haven't found the plans
yet.

I've seen the plans on a model sight somewhere. But other than that,
all I have is the full size plans 8*)

instinct, and morality, to just sit back and watch people make
mistakes. We want to help them, which means control them and their
decisions, but in doing so we actually hurt them (and ourselves)."

I took some pics of the white one at New Braunfels a couple of years
ago. Neat machine.

Studying those pics, I'm guessing there is a fairly healthy pitching
moment since the center of lift is WAY back behind the engine.

If anybody comes across the plans for it, would you mind letting
me know where to find it?

Building a small flying model would be most interesting lesson in
delta wing aerodynamics.
