After serveral years of Ukies it was a 1957 Airco Aero 9 that I first successfully acheved remote control after a year of trying and flyaways (what a dream that was), powered by a throttless Torp .09 and sorta guided by a kit built Babcock. Never really stopped flying ever since RC or Ukies. Got a nifty photo of the original Airco but no scanner. These are photos of the replica built about two years ago and powered with that original engine only this time one of the remarkable modern radios we all take so much for granted. This time its flown with a rudder and a pinch off to prevent those flyaways (can,t chase the thing as effectively with my wheelchair as I once did with my bicycle

).
