WOW... I realize this is an older thread, but I just had to ask if anyone is still flying the ol' troublemaker.
Tony Bonetti was a regular member of my club at the time (RCRC in NY) he, Dennis Donohue (Flying the El Tigre) and my Father (Pat Buzzeo) were ALWAYS trying to out do each other...
I can distinctly remember the three of them argu .. ummm... 'discussing' the swept wings, chin bubble (for the retract nose gear)
Split elevators/hidden elevator linkages etc... I was 8 or 9 at the time but i remember it like it was yesterday
I know Tony is still alive and in Las Vegas... my Dad is 92, still fiesty and still flies EVERYDAY it's not raining...
I'm probably talking to myself in this year old thread, but around Father's day I tend to get a bit nostalgic.
thank you to ALL here for the stroll down memory lane.
