RE: Why is CL losing popularity?
Hi,
I bought a copy of Model Airplane News in March of 2003 and I didn`t see a single article about C/L in it. It was like reading Radio Control Models. From this I assumed that R/C had taken over. I later found the Stuka Stunt Works site, and it is like a time warp.
I flew Noblers, Flight Streaks, Ringmasters in the 50`s and 60`s, and so do they 40 years later. The planes look the same as they did long ago with the beautiful finishes. Innovations seem to have died out. The big items in the site seem to be finding a decent stunt engine and the fuel for it. I feel lucky to have been around the "golden age" back then, and then seeing it in the present day.
No bones to pick, just my observations.
