History:

This aircraft was designed by Mr Raymond Tolhurst as an all-composite light sporting aircraft for his Company Composite Aero Components of Camden NSW. The aircraft was a canard with three wings, a forward, main wing and normal tail. It had a fixed undercarriage and was to be powered by a six-cylinder 100-kw (120-hp) Jabiru 3300 engine when completed. The prototype was under construction in 2004 but was delayed for sometime due to other work. When completed it was to be fitted with floats, the floats being braced from the forward canard. By late 2015 the aircraft had not been completed and it was placed in storage for period but eventually the design was abandoned.
