Don Hoag's Wicked Witch is definitely bigger, and not at all anything like the Jetco Sabre Stunt --- which was based on Jose Sadurno's (Mexico) 1952 Nats entry.  That one had a 50" span, and did not resemble Hoag's design at all.

Hi Dan,

Like Uncle Mikey says, it is not much at all like the Jetco Sabre.

I have the fuselage *box* that I built maybe 15 years ago, but stalled on.  The 3" of wing asymmetry finally threw me off.   My set of the plans are over 50 years old! LL~

Is this a croquet reference? (Wichet Witch?).

OK, I couldn't resist. It was a funny typo.

Holy Cow, Randy.  If you're going to needle somebody for his poor spelling the least you can do is mis-spell his mis-spelling properly! 

Wicket, man, Wicket, not Wichet!!!!! n~ n~ n~

Merry Christmas!

Ted,

Uh, it was a pun. The mis-spelling was the point. Somehow, I didn't think it would be you that bit.   ;D
