1990s sort of date. ( I remember interesting THINGS, but not times or dates) I can recall reading about this kite with great interest, as I was into kite making at the time. And met the maker and saw it fly at a Teston fly in later on. Very impressive envelope, 360 degrees in light wind. It was very curved in it's plan form, and from the side it was more like a flying wing than a regular stunt kite. And as mentioned, twin skinned to produce a properly smooth airfoil. It was really interesting, and worked well, but was complex and therefore quite expensive. Thanx in advance for any info peeps.

Would think Bill or Matt would be the ones most likely to know. They don't hang around here but if I see them at the weekend I'll ask.
Get a different perspective - try KAP

Soft kite or sparred? If soft it sounds a little like a NASA wing Mike
