No awards for guessing why I picked this one ? the proportions would suit just about any type of model,the parasol layout is just spot on for lazy summers evening flying stooging around with a fourstroke puttering away up front.

Note the interesting wing attachment,not much actually but adequate,the wing appears to pivot about the axis of the god bolt,then the rigging wires do the rest,on the model you could use a single pin to de-rig and then snap or swing in connectors for easy wing removal.

The type is a Lindsey monoplane Mk.2 powered with a Continental A.65 and built in 1965.

I think this one is going on my plans to scale up list.
