Yup I built one, here is a picture of the one I built. fantastic flying airplane
the only down side is it,"mine" was powered by volkswagen which is not fit for
aircraft in my opinion after flying it for 500 hours. I know that threre are a
couple VW gerus here but IMO It is not an aircraft engine.

There are those that would questions whether it is a legitimate
automobile engine, too. ;-)

(this from somebody contemplating building an airplane around such an
engine...)

The Mini Coupe looks like an interesting design - are the plans still
available?
