It is definitely an AEROPLANE as it is a British kit and it is an RC model aircraft.

A finished wing

Phil spotted the clue - a wing rather than the wing!

I am about to start the other wing

It threw me where you stated the "wood work" was done. I assume the top wing is built-up as well? I wonder if a bipe's performance could be improved if the top wing weighed less... a lot less?

Is it a scale/semi-scale model?

I have no idea Ian, what I do know is I like the construction and build quality.

Is this a kit.. or did you have it laser-cut from a plan-set? The wings look similar to an "Ultimate" bipe.

It is a kit with laser cut parts - there are no plans supplied with the kit - only instructions (all verbal - no pictures).

It is a British kit and not an "Ultimate" or "Gentle Lady". There isn't even a picture on the box.

Luckily, a builder took pictures and documented his progress on the Interweb - ~I have been perusing that quite closely.
