Thats the Aeroflight Streak 85 which became the AFA-1 Streak. Can't see any reference to a swept tail version, but there was an AFA-2 and 3 neither of which I can find a photo of?

You aare right, David. My answer would embarrassingly be "no"! Sorry, Mel! Yes, thanks for keeping our postings recorded. It certainly must be a task and a half and deserves a pint if we were ever to meet up! Martin
