Default RE: Vintage ducted fan (1975)


ORIGINAL: TFF

I believe Kress was one of the main engineers who designed the F-14 and did the model stuff for fun. What I always wanted was the House of Balsa F-86 and a K&B 21. I was a kid when the early ducted fan stuff was out and always watched with intrest, but I was doing good with a UglyStick and a 4 channel Futaba.

Bob Kress was indeed one of the cheif engineers on the F-14 project for Grumman.
