I believe the plane pictured is a ducted fan model designed by Duane Johnson of St. Louis, MO. Model Merchant built these kits. Model Merchant later became Aero Telemundo. I have several of their kits - 2 Martin Baker MB-5s and the only pattern plane (as far as I know) known as the Double Eagle. Their planes were mostly ARCs (almost ready to cover). The workmanship was extremely good. Hope this has been some help.
