Which Phoenix is your favorite to fly? Don't know if I mentioned it elsewhere, but the first plane I built was a Phoenix 1 from RCM plans when I was about 14-15. I showed the picture to your Dad at a Detroit Invitational meet in '66, I think--he just kind of smiled at me. It was a little rough-looking, and I couldn't fly it--but who cares---it looked sooo cool with those swept wings. By the time I was experienced enough, it was too old and brittle to fly. Some day, I'm going to build another just to complete the cycle.

I've included pictures of the Altair and Phoenix
