Default Long Time Modeler Passes away

Very long time modeler Mike Kulczyk passed away last night after a lengthly illness. Mike was a heck of a modeler. He built all his aircraft from scratch, even the landing gears. One of the most memorable planes was a tail dragger Super Marine Attacker. Mike even built his first ducted fan unit out of wood.
He retired from the Air Force as a Lt. Col. He flew full scale 105's, F100's among a host of others. Mike really liked to tell stories of his career as a pilot and believe me he had his share to tell.
He will be missed in the jet community and at the Austin Radio Control club
Took this picture off FranK Tiano's facebook page. Picture was taken at Top Gun but I don't know when or where
