What a great thread!

I started building stick-and-tissue at a very young age. It was a great revelation to me when I learned that the tissue could be shrunk by wetting it! I remember building a Goldberg designed Comet Gull and thinking it was HUGE! It flew for several feet, too.

First CL was a Firebaby (wood fuselage) with an O.K. .049. Then I got a Fox.29 and Ringmaster kit for Christmas. Hooked forever.
