Looking for pans to toobee glider

[kruland]

Somewhere I have seen plans (scanned paper plans) for a glider which was loosely based on the toobee. The glider was a large body tube with the leading edge built up. The booster was a pretty standard three fin rocket. The booster's fins connected to the the lip of the glider.

Does this ring a bell to anyone? Do you know where a link is?

Thanks

Kevin

You are probably thinking of the old Flying Stovepipe. It was printed up in the old Estes Model Rocket News in the late 1960s, I believe.
Here's an EMRR link:

Be sure to scroll down and read the "opinion". The original designer Larry Deran was still flying and tweaking it in 2000.

That's it, the flying stovepipe. Thanks much. However, I don't think I have 18 years to perfect it.
