Jeide - II Perfection plan from [link]http://www.rcmmagazine.com/store/store-plans-catalog-tem.html?item=plansl-327&sid=0001T58tFI1KdGgbck9b922[/link]

This is Dick Allen with his Stark Shark considered by Art Schroeder to be "the best rudder/elevator model ever"

If you do opt for the II Perfection the secret of success is to build it with a light wing. This is true for all models of course but especially so for the Perfection. I base this advice on having built at least half a dozen of them for myself and other people. One used an obechi veneered/glassed foam wing and flew like a pig. The best had a built up wing covered with 1/16" contest grade balsa. The contrast in flight between them was amazing.
