I saw something like unto that at OSH a dozen or more years ago. The
wing was canted back rather than an oval in the same plane, such that
it was more of a canard design. The fact that you don't see more of
such things clearly means that it isn't really better. Wonder how
that fuselage would have flown if they'd just made it into a plain
old negative stagger bi-plane, rather than trying to make it have "no tips".
This sort of thing has been proposed many times before, often by
those that should have known better....

Design goes back to the '40's.
The plane should go back to the scrap pile.
The pilot should go back to the asylum.
Just goes to prove sometimes you can fool Mother Nature and Physics.
