My Simla, the one in the article and pictured above, last flew in 2012 at a Vintage RC event (where I’m posing with it in the yellow shirt).

Since then I’ve been flying and practicing for Senior Pattern Association, (SPA) contests.

Lately though I’ve been having vision problems and don’t want to risk the plane until things improve. The plane is safe.
