It is a 21st Century re-invention of a facebrick with a huge nose to act as the crumple zone.
Oh..., don't miss that after-muffler on the facebricks' exhaust ! Guess it makes it crash less loudly

Gee Alan..... I'm sitting a 1000 k's away from my skattie but John Young always asked me the same question - to be honest, it's the time from 22h00-02h00 that I function the best without interruptions of any sort! It's sort of my my multi-tasking time

I think the oke could'nt fit in the hangar and started cutting the wing shorter.

Re: Strange Aircraft...
The prop has been designed for France. They have fairly strict noise control there, you will also find the Rotax 912 ULSFR which houses certain modifications to reduce noise...
