The late Gilbert Landray was one of Henri Mignet's "disciples" and built several of his own Mignet-type tandem wing designs. It was a hobby to him, not a business, and other than some limited drawings published in magazines he never really distributed plans. Nonetheless, there is a lot to be learned from his designs. I stumbled across this video that I though folks might like. It's grainy, in French, and a bit corny at times, but about half of it is nice air-to-air footage of Landray flying one of his later designs. I believe that it's the GL.07 Galopin, a VW-powered, enclosed, tricycle-gear two-seater.
