Michele Colmban thought up the unique twin engine design in 1971 and ultimately named it after his daughter's nickname. Construction is all metal with standard stick-n-rudder controls. Ailerons span the entire length of the wing allowing the airplane to be considered acrobatic. Almost two hundred Cri-Cris have been built and registered. Plans are no longer available.
