RE: Your first CL Plane? just for fun
Goldberg " l'il Jumpin' Bean" then moved up to a Jr. Ringmaster then went crazy with a Goldberg Jr. Satan (with a Torpedo 19 Greenhead that always caught on fire!) then went combat crazy with numerous VooDoo's ( I love Riley R.I.P.). I now have a Flite Streak with a McCoy 35 and am building a Brodak "Galaxy" with a ST C35. My all time CL engine of choice is the ST G21-35. What a beast. I do not use LG on anything. My 82 year old Dad ( Pit Boy) still launches for me. He got me started in all this with his Wooten "Quicker" with a Johnson 35. I got so dizzy I puked but I flew the whole tank out without crashing. We had 5 guys in the circle one day. That is another story in itself!
My Dad started out with a Consolidated " Aero Puppet" with a Forester 29 on ignition. Now that is old stuff.
Oh yeh..........and a Berkeley "KEY". I have lots of old black and white photos. I'll see if I can copy them with my digital camera and post them.
