Looks like the "boys from Brazil" have gone wild over Al's Mustang!
Looks like Tank's Hanger laser cut parts. (??)

I met the Brazilian WC Team in 2004.  They are really a bunch of cool guys!

Not sure if it was a Rabe mustang that Benny was doing dead stick loops with but it was impressive!

I didn't ask, but the construction, molding, etc., are so reminiscent of Al's birds that the thought just jumper to mind.

It certainly looks that way to me, too, Bill.  Those "bore-sightable" jig tubes and the ribs with the jig holes offset to provide the dihedral were a dead giveaway.
