Ron....

OK, I'll guess first... a Prather Interceptor?????? or something like that... really a weird looking pattern ship... believe it was designed by Bob Violett.... just a guess... LOL

Dan,

It's a weird looking pattern ship for sure but it has it's sweet side also.
It's not a Bob Violett design but is a Prather. Now that was to much info.

boomerik,

You got this one [sm=thumbup.gif]. Unbelievable being that your profile
states that you been in the hobby for only two years.
You have bested the best. I think Dan really knew all the time.

this one was just lucky because i`m reading trough the old pattern forum.I came across a pic off one so just luck

I`m only two years into the hobby because my dad left the hobby for 15 years and just teached me how to fly two years ago.
I really like the old pattern planes the looks and how they fly.I`ve just finished building a curare 60 from M.A.N plans for my dad and before that i build a deceptionfor myself from some old plans my dad still had .

boomerik,

I thought some of the old guys would have done the same as you.
We did this one just about a year ago. Your Deception looks okay
to me. As long as you like it is all that matters. How well does it fly?

definately a Prather Panther it never went anywhere though since it featured a shoulder wing and needed a fixed aluminum main gear. At that time anyone going to the trouble to build a molded fuse plane wanted retracts

Yes, Prather Panther. Flew nicely, but had poor knife-edge characteristics. Instructions had two wing builds - one straight, the other annhedral. SOmewhere there's a pic of mine. Actually, it was my ex's. You'll know when I get the photo.
