That Jetco Dragon was a neat flier too, similar as both free flight and CL and a bipe to boot. It would be another nice plane to model.

Yep!
Dragonfly kit is VERY hard to find now too, I have seen only one show up on fleabay in several years now.
Bert Streigler's original Ebenezer is probably where the germ of the idea came from, although it was a FF only, someone came up with the idea of putting lines on one or so it would seem. The Hornet carried it a bit farther in being a built-up fuselage job. It is also similar to the Veco Dakota in a sense.

I've seen the Ebenezer. You're right about the Jetco Dragonfly. Perhaps one of these days someone might template it and make it available for scratch building.

It would be nice to see.

Here is one of my favorite Ebenezer videos as an aside:

They come in an amazing number of flavors and some folks do put lines on them.
