Identify this plane
Can anyone identify this unfinished plane . It probably dates to the 70-80s as that was when the builder was active. It has a 62" wing span and is 48" without the rudder.Trycycle gear with the nose wheel located behind the firewall. motor mount appears to be for a 60-61 engine. It has no formers or mounts for servos or tank. I would like to finish the plane. but would like to know a little more about past perfomance and build tips if available. THANKS

RE: Identify this plane
Jim,
I believe the plane is a fiberglass version of Tony Bonetti's Troublemaker pattern ship. The fuselage shape and wing areas look right. This airplane is being kitted by Eureka models in an all balsa version.. I'm certain that getting a set of plans from them would help you out in build/finishing this plane. More on this plane plus a build thread on the kit can be found in the vintage pattern forum. Good luck with your project.
