Lockspeiser LDA-01 for inspiration

[cluttonfred]

David Lockspeiser passed away earlier this year after an amazing aviation career as a Hawker Hunter test and demonstration pilot and an aircraft designer. His LDA-10, a 70% scale proof-of-concept for a planned utility aircraft, makes an interesting contrast to the sleek, high aspect ratio, composite designs that come to mind when we say "canard." Here's a contemporary clip for inspiration...a 70% scale version of the 70% scale original would be about right for an LSA. ;-) Cheers, Matthew
