It was a: single vertical stabilizer, tricycle gear, low wing plane.
Production was to start in 1966, Priced in the $10,000 to $11,000 range.
Only one was made. Alon was absorbed by Mooney, who tested it and later
decided against producing it.
The book has some sketches and a photo. Nice looking plane.
