RE: Best performance classic pattern plane
Nic:
Didn't Bill Comerford have a Dirty Birdy 40 with a 60 up front. I thought he had a little extra performance. Then remember when the "Cricket phase" hit the meadows. We all had those little helis for a while. Fred Schnieder had an EU-1A also but I think he used an OS VF for a while with an Ace Silver Seven as opposed to the Rocky Hill standard JR Unlimited 8 radios. I still can see those "Mile Out" turnarounds to get the speed for the next manuver.
Peace
