David has been drinking those Long Island Iced Teas again! I do not know what that thing in the photos is, but it ain't the Sundowner. The Sundowner also used the Scozzi fan, but was kind of a cross between a .60 sized pattern ship and an F-4 Phantom. It had fake, non-functional Phantom intake like bumps up front for looks with a conventional tail with Phantom like anhedral. It did not have a twin boom tail as that thing in the photo has. There was an article about the Sundowner in (I believe) American Aircraft Modeler magazine a few months before I saw it fly at Lakehurst. So that makes it 1973 or 1974. I still have the issue somewhere deep deep in boxes in the attic, but I could never find it.
