Was that a kit? It kind of looks like a Goldberg Bucker Jungman. More info would help. Especially inches and what do the wings look like?

The top wing is 50inch
The Bottom wing is 49inch
I think it is a Protech Christian Eagle
Can anyone confirm?

I think its a Pitts. The rudder/fin on the Eagle is more squared. The cowl is also more square. In either case they are similar in CG etc.
