WOW... that looks like someone went to the aircraft junk yard, and put a bunch of crap together... and then moved the wing forward until they found the CG.

crop duster because it frightened the bugs away.

Strangely, I don't have the urge to buid one. - John.

I've heard of the desire for a guy to try ugly once in a while, but I've never heard it being referred to as going to an ugly jet.
