Yikes! Nice pics Todd D. Here are a few I managed to take. Remember the movie Ground Hog Day? I wish last weekend would start all over again! Thanks to the Fond du Lac Aeromodelers!

Hi guys,
I just received a request from [email protected] in Madrid Spain. He wants to know who owns the Grumman Tracker on page one, post four ( behind Jeff Q's 1/4 scale spit.) They want to build one and they would like to contact the owner with some questions. Any help would be appreciated. BTW there are now 22 pilots pre-registered for WCOM 2013!

This is the Balsa USA Albatross
It looked great in the air and on the ground........Great job Bill
One of the pics is Jeff and Opie waiting to get some stick time on this bad boy.....
As you can see clearly in one of the pics -You can see Bill telling Mark "Come on Mark ...no test drives on the proto-type!"...............................LOL
When it was in the air..... Mark handed over the controller to the MN boys..........And FUN was had by all!

Paul, That was SUCH a shame to see your beautiful plane end up in that condition. I was the one who chatted you up about it on the flight line shortly before it stuffed in, but never properly introduced myself to you. Was fun to meet you though and was sorry to see that happen. I'm not usually too attracted to the WWI planes, but that one was something special. Hopefully it rises again.

Hi Guys,
We received a request for some pilot info. If anyone knows who the biplane (with the skinny pilots) in the very first picture on this thread belongs to, the plan designer or kit mfg would like to contact him. He has a very nice ariel photo of it and would like to communicate with the owner/pilot for possible magazine use. The guy to contact is [email protected]
Thanks,
Roy
