First control plane - Testor's Cosmic Wind - No luck, couldn't keep engine running. In hind sight, probably had bad fuel, but I spun that prop all night trying to get it started!

First control line plane to fly - Baby Flight Streak + Cox Black Widow. Much better luck, flew the wings off of it several times. The weak spot seemed to be the fuse breaking right behind the wing. Of course 5 minute epoxy would have it flying again as soon as the epoxy would set! I Actually cloned it several times for my brothers and myself before building a bigger .15 sized Midwest mustang with an Enya .15.

Latest control line plane - Brodak Pathfinder + LA46. Great setup!
