Peter,
 
Several Flying Planks were constructed in Australia c1958.
One was hanging on the wall of the Gliding Club of Victoria's hangar at Benalla for a lot of years, not sure where this one is now. 

It is still there at the back of our main hangar. In reasonable condition too !

As far as I know it flew only once - it took off, off the ground, did a full flip (a forward loop on its axis) and landed - well, didn't crash, well.. not broken in to bits crash anyway :-)
