Beautiful plane, Jim, wondered which one it was and found it on Outerzone

Love what it states:
Cougar - Control line flapped stunter. This is a modern redrawn plan in PDFvector format. Quote: "If you do decide to use the plan it is a tracing from the original scan so please take care. The Cougar was designed by T. Stoker for use in the 1956 Gold Trophy but had fuel feed problems on the day (not an uncommon occurrence I know). She has a wingspan of 45" and is designed with a motor of .19 to .29 in mind. All in all a beautiful example of the British Stunter in vogue at that time - before the Fox 35 ruled the roost."
Thanks for bringing back a part of history, and I imagine it will be a really nice flier, more than capable of the complete AMA pattern. Also looks like it would be an ideal candidate for my Enya .19-V CL engine.
