Flew the Big Fleet over lake Erie and back again in 1978. It was heralded as the first 1/4 scale plane to do a lumchevak (spell ) Not sure that was true, but I flew it from the shores of Pa to Long Point Canada, re-fueled it and flew it back again. The only one that new in Canada was the light house keeper. We did contact him ahead of time. Of course couldn't do that today, be in trouble for it now. I flew it at meets for about 10 yrs, finally broke it, Still have it though and the Quadra 35 that powered it. Good Luck with yours.
