I believe Vikx nailed it, looks like they just boxed in the area under the dome, then modified the frame to have more tongue sticking out. you can see the joint in the skin where the extra skin was added. if someone done this there selves, it was a lot of work. hope they done it right.

Methinks you got it. It explains the odd windows on the front sides and the fact that it's square. Lot of work for a funky look.

Yes but it would add 15 to 20 percent to the space inside the trailer with very little weight gain. All they added was the extra floor, two short sections of side wall and 3 feet of frame material. Not bad for that amount of space gain if you think about it.

Wow, it's really roomy! If it wasn't so ugly, I'd like it...

This one won't fly, that's for sure!
John, we know you're just jealous yours doesn't have wings...
