It's Marty Moad's El Toro. 72" span, .45 power for F&M reeds. October 1961 American Modeler. I've been working a CAD set of plans for it, they're almost done. I scanned the views that raindave posted and traced it with Autocad. The fuselage and tail detailing is done, just need to finish the airfoil lofting and part details.

Yes, it closely resembles Ted White's El Toro which came along a few years later.

The original drawing looks very Astro hoggish...

Plans won't be available yet, I want to build a p-type before I release it. The construction will be as per the three view except with subtle changes around the firewall.
