Default RE: History of Senior Telemaster

My father (now 72) built a Senior Telemaster some 30-35odd years ago. I guess you can say he introduced the plane to my country (Malaysia). However he built the plane by plan only, not by kit. Because of the size, we carried it around in a Volvo Station Wagon. It was and still is a beautiful slow flier, a style of flying which is rare here nowadays (builders are rare this part of the world).
I think it would interest you to know as I have not read of anyone doing so, that my father scaled the plans for the plane down by half and built ½ scaled down version as a trainer. My brother who took over building, built a ¼ scale 3 channel (no rudder) version and all few beautifully. I was woundering if anyone else have scaled down the plane, or even scaled up?
