@cluttonfred, aloominum because I'm used to working it and the Zenith way is simple and fast.Not really gone on the Hummel tadpole shape. A D-9 because I'd like a single-seater, especially if it had a simple three-piece Jodel wing that could be taken down and carried in a trailer. Assemble it in Spring and take it apart in Winter for storage. A CFM Shadow living in it's own trailer is a classic example.
VJ23 powered version for older pilots.Self launching glider with paramotor engine.Minimal changes.
Currently Evert Cornet of AC Light Aviation is working on something similar. Evert is the guy of the Scirocco ultralight second generation. He knows his composites.VJ23 powered version for older pilots(unable to run).Self launching glider with paramotor engine.Minimal changes.

Well if we’re just going with wants, I want an Eaglet:
Yes it’s only a single seater but it would make a great little escape pod from real life.
Very Payen.This guy. Fixed lifting V-tail.
The flap/elevator/ailerons also split open to function as drag rudders for short control runs.

The Eaglet is from the Bill Barnes pulp novels andif you like it you should check out the other planes they had like the Scarlet Stormer and a squadron of Lancers. The bad guys had some seriously cool hardware too, like the Dart which was basically a militarized Hawks Time Flies.Is that from the old comic books that featured the Grumman Skyrocket?
