RE: RAVEN
Blu -
The full scale Raven was a 1 off built by Wayne Handley. There was a kit called the Rebel 2300 that had a double tapered wing. I believe that Wayne started with one of these and replaced the wing with a Zivko wing offered for the Laser 200. Richard Giles did not design it. www.waynehandley.com
The Turbo-Raven was based on the Giles 202/300 that Richard designed. Wayne made so many modifications that I think that you could also call it a 1 off vs. a Giles modification (like calling an Edge a modified Laser). www.zivko.com
Most of the model Ravens that I have seen are in fact Rebel 2300 models (double tapered wing) with the Raven Paint scheme.
