After searching the literature the closest thing to what we (my
brother and I) want to build is called the "Aqua-Glider" which is made
mostly out of wood. I thought we might copy the design but substitute
materials.

I have a complete collection of the articles concerning the
Aqua-0Glider, and a set of images concerning the extremely soimilar
"Lawrence Glider" of about 1930. Send me a private note and I will e-
mail this information to you directly.

I was also considering a Parasol type design for added stability.

If you do that, you're not building Aqua-Glider. If you insist on
changing a design that works, I suggest you build a model of your idea
and fly that for a complete summer. Keep records of every change you
make, and take movies of all the tests.
