Scott,
Thanks for the correction on the Strato origins. BTW, I have a Bristol Scout fuselage and plans from the Strato kit. I scrapped the wings as the previous builder did such a hash job they weren't worth saving. Fortunately I have the MAN plans to complete the airplane. You might also know that at one time, your dad had sold the original Bristol from the MAN article to Carl Cantera of the Delaware RC Club. Carl passed away recently but I recall him flying the airplane quite a bit. He later sold it to my dad who had it for a while but then sold it to someone else. I lost track of the airplane after that.
