Default What plane is this

I am going to call it a
'Mach I'
originally designed by Norm Page I believe. Kitted later.

It appears the stab has an elevator that is located between two tips that extend back to back edge.

The wing fillet looks very appropriate for that design.

Wing design (outline) also looks right.

Engine area contour looks right.

I built one from a kit and really loved the look of it and if flew well.

The fin and rudder look about right (can't be sure with the angle of the picture). If that fin has a noticeable 'slope' or 'rake' to it then that would be appropriate.

I think the Mach I had the tip of the verticle fin also extend back to the trailing edge of the rudder.

If there is a perfect plywood circle between the spinner and the engine area balsa that would be appropriate.

If you could take some additional pictures, especially with the wing off and looking into the radio compartment including the wing fillet, as well as a 'profile' shot it would help.
