This Connecticut based firm is headed by Bill Russell who has aquired the rights from Fischer Flugmechanik to distribute the Airfish 3 in the USA. While the Airfish 3 was there for demonstration purposes, the Flarecraft 370 was developed which was a copy of the Airfish. For this craft there is no licence agreement with either FF or RFB. Later the L-325 was developed, which is essentially a scaled up Airfish. Flarecraft has produced a limited number of L-325's and has also sold some.
Anhedral/reverse-delta wings, wing floats and T tail. Other than the propulsion system orientation, looks pretty much like a Lippisch type craft to me..
This is not a Lippisch craft but a illegal and bad copy of Airfish 3 by German invetntors Hanno Fischer and Klaus Matjasic, both assistants of Alexander Lippisch at RFB company.
Problems with these craft and with the company have lead to the bankrupcy of Flarecraft in 1999 or 2000.

It's usually a good idea to site references when you make a claim, less you not be taken seriously.
