I recall that a number of years ago, the Tucano's designer and his son flew a wood homebuilt that had similar lines to the Tucano. In fact, after searching for an email address, I inquired about it, but the designer's son didn't have much to say except that he was looking for serious investors to put it into production.

OK, found it ... it was called the Kovacs K-51 Peregrine

(sorry for the typo in the heading but I'm unable to correct it... )
