I considered building one (Dyke Delta)at one time. Interesting airplane.

Paul, that was the one that started my homebuilt dreams. It was featured in Popular Mechanics back in the late 60's(?). The big plus that impressed me so much was the glide ratio (22:1) iirc. Thirty years later, I'm building what I consider a close cousin, the Long EZ.
