Cox PT19 the red and white one...

Grew up in OC California and used to ride my bike to the COX factory and dig trough the trash for the rejects, not good enough for sale. Found all kinds of bits and pieces, you could put complete planes together with the stuff they tossed out. Flew just about every COX plane built, had a knack for getting an 049 to run so I helped all the kids in the neighborhood to fly thier planes as well then moved up to bigger stuff, Ringmaster, Voodo. Then Mile Square park, but it wasn't called that in the beginning, just an emergency runway for the El Toro Marine base. Got bit hard by the RC bug at Mile Square, it was a crime when they stopped us from flying there but a golf course and condos are more important to some than others.

Had boxes of stuff, planes and engines in my parents garage, turned 18 and moved out but before I could get it out of there my dad just decided one day that he needed to clean the garage and threw it all out. So I started all over again, just can't stop...
