I still find it a very fascinating design. And if it wasn't for the T-tail, I'd think about building one.

There is one hanging in the EAA museum. A French design. The fuselage is basically a box like structure that tapers fore and aft of the cockpit. Single place with a very tall, bubble canopy and a T-tail. The engines are 2 cycle, single cylinder with "free air" cooling. Much like racing kart engines. I believe they are about 185cc each. And they are mounted on the ends of single struts off the nose.
