Do pictures exist (internet search proved fruitless) of the uncovered wing structure of the Harper Lil Breezy? It appears to be a traditionally covered Cub-Like-Wing...but I note only one wing strut at approximately 25% chord and extending only short distance spanwise. Is it an aluminium D-section construction? I also found pictures of it in folded position. Does anyone have pics of the wing mount/wing fold points?

I would also be interested in purchasing plans, however, I don't see that they are available. Does anyone know of a source?

Any experiences with the Harper wing design? Pros/Cons? Was it adapted from something previous? Strengths/weaknesses? Weights? Overbuilt/underbuilt?

EDIT: I tried the HarperAircraft.com URL that is linked on old Light Sport and Ultralight Flyer articles...Warning, the website seems corrupted, I got a blue screen spyware scam message that freezes the browser. Careful if you try it.

Whether related development or no, the Blue Yonder EZFlyer appears to share a similar wing design, which also seems to appear on their Merlin...but I recall the Merlin from a prior company. Same wing? But for the obvious Junkers flaperons vs traditional ailerons.
