From the archives of the wild and wacky, late 1970's, early 1980's. I think the fan would be starved for supply air, what about you?

If it is the same BEDE and I'm assuming it is. Then he was also an aircraft designer of some successful and some not so successful homebulit aircraft.

Correct, and the only way to get that plane to work was to have a young Burt Rutan work on it, who when finished asked that his name be taken off all documents and credits. He did his best and said something to the effect, keep this off the market. In the end Mr. Bede died in his own unforgiving plane design, and Burt went on to better things.

Good eyes, Mychael! It does look like a man standing there, but I think it's a either a simplified control station, a binnacle, or a fire monitor. It never moves, so it's either a piece of equipment bolted down..... or a guy frozen by terror!
