The engine was a .61 Rossi, not a .91 and it was also a fibreglas fuselage of unknown to me manufacture. Ducted Fan Technology was new in those days.
This video shows how well they worked.

This is a scratch-built P-80 Shooting star with a Rossi .61 engine running on 20% Nitro and a Byrojet ducted fan from Byron Originals.

This plane is hanging in my garage and is still possibly flyable.
All I need is a 3 man working crew to fly it.
