      The author studies the twistor correspondence for neutral self dual conformal structures with \(\alpha\)-surface foliation which are close to the standard structure on \(S^2\times S^2\). He describes a class of neutral self-dual Zollfrei conformal structures with an \(\alpha\)-surface foliation and proves that there is a one-to-one correspondence between their equivalence classes and equivalence classes of totally real embeddings \(i:\mathbb{RP}^3\rightarrow\mathbb{CP}^3\) which are close to the standard structures. The projective structure obtained on the leave space is the standard Zoll projective structure. The local general forms of neutral self-dual metrics with \(\alpha\)-surface foliation is given. The result is similar to that of Mason and LeBrun.
