Default RE: Name the plane

That is one nice Guillows Trainer 3!

Mine did not look that good 50 years ago and now looks even worse!

This thing still being around and mostly in one piece speaks well for its durability.

I know that the McCoy .35 was buried in the sod 5-6 times a day with all that was needed for the next flight was straightening of the T.F. 10x6 nylon prop and cleaning the mud out of the intake.

You know this thing will almost kinda sorta fly inverted? That's how you get mud in the intake!

If ever I get caught up building stunt planes guess I will have to restore the old thing.

Thanks for the memories grotto!
