Default RE: Your first CL Plane? just for fun

ORIGINAL: Red_Jeepster THANKS for causing the memories to come flooding in!!! My first was the PT-19 and shortly later my Dad maidened my first balsa kit -a bipe. He planted it in the school parking lot on his first circuit! I stood there speechless. Now I do that every so often myself - as I plant one.
I'd be speechless, too. I prefer planting mine in grass. Asphalt is rather brutal. [:@]

My favorite CL was the big Ringmaster. Silkspan and dope, Fox 35 oh the smell of fuel on a hot summer afternoon! Now I have Grandsons and young fellas at church that I can mentor in the hobby. I hope they make it a lifelong adventure like we have!
