    Sold it way back in the 90's. it was an 8A with all metal wings converted to E model . Was pretty, but learned how much work it takes to keep a polished aluminum plane looking good....ugh :gnashing:.

    Too old to "HUCK"?

    "Old Guys Rule!" ....at least that what my shirt says :confused:. I'll be 62 in Dec and I "Suck Huck" but still have fun with it. Funny, I can fly (and love) precision stuff all day long and not get nervous....but throw in a few low hovers and such and bam, my heart rate jumps way up.

    Stupidest thing you have ever done RC related.

    Pop goes the prop!

    GSN members are a class act! I have only witnessed one other delam besides mine. Both were a couple of years apart and both of us quickly shut down and landed. No plane damage on either.
