through some old magazines and lo and behold here’s an article titled
“Canard Pointers” by Capt. Ronald VanPutte. It’s from the April, 1968
issue of American Aircraft
Modeler. <BR><?/x-tad-bigger><?/fontfamily></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>That was
during the five years when I was a professor at the Air Force Institute of
Technology. I gave my class in stability and control a design project
involving a canard aircraft. After I successfully flew a six-foot span R/C
version of the airplane, I wrote an article on canard design and sent it to
AAM and they published it. Looong time ago.<BR><BR>Ron Van
