Malibu ??

Yes,
That was Bruno's Marabu, like the stork. 
He used it to win the '69 and '71 Worlds.

Shel,...

Now you've got my curiosity piqued!!  If I am nothing else,.. I'm a
sucker 
for older pattern designs.  I'd love to see what info and pictures you
come 
up with!!

Upon seeing your original message I scanned through RCM plans catalog, 
figuring that if Bill Cunningham ever published that design, that would
where 
it would be.  Unfortunately I struck out there.  However I seemed to
recall a 
plane very similar in name in the Model Airplane News plans catalog and
I was 
right!!

I found a plane called a Malabu MK III however it was designed by Bruce

Giezendanner.  The plane was featured as a construction article in the
July 
1972 issue of Model Airplane News.  Wing span is 66 inches, length 53.
I 
don't know if that is what you are looking for, but from the small B&W
photo 
in the plans catalog it looks like a warmed over Kaos.

Let me know if I can be of any more help to you.  And, please let me
know 
what the other guys turn up for information!!
