Miniature planes

What are the successfully flown planes having miniature width?

From
http://www.aerospaceweb.org/question/design/q0214.shtml

the interesting ones:
Sky Baby - biplane, span 210 cm, first flown 1952, stays in a museum

Bumble Bee - biplane, span 200 cm, first flown 1984.

Baby Bird - monoplane, span 190 cm, first flown 1984.

So, can anyone add any more examples - planes with wingspan under 250 cm that have flown and not crashed? What is their performance in air? On landing? On takeoff? On taxiing?
