Rick, you can make it as much or little of a project at you wish. Simplify the wing construction a bit and use an epoxy and fiberglass over carved foam for the fuselage and it becomes a fairly simple project that is no more complex than any other model sailplane. Don't want to work with the fiberglass or super curved fuselage shapes? There were quite a few that used simple shapes that can be built up with flat sheet or sticks. The one you're thinking of I believe is a Slingsby trainer perhaps. There was also the Wolf out of Austria and a couple of others that may fit what you want. Let me see what's in my Vintage Sailplanes book. But working from the 3 views in there will require a plan be drawn up.

There was a spiffy little free flight glider of the Wolf on the 'net. I have the file around somewhere. I'll see if I can find it. It's a much simpler build and may be just what you want.
