In the Ed Kazmirski’s Taurus thread Duane wrote in post 778 page 32:
>>>

Also as R/C left the "pioneer days", the competition gets tougher. To stay "on top" is hard to do, and requires continued ambition, drive, and commitment.
>>>

An important fact to investigate and look at picture 1, bullet holes in the Taurus fin and rudder!

What does that mean in history? The competition already was tough in 1961?
Yes and no,

Yes, it already was tough and no, (I think) it is still tough today and in the “pioneer days”!
That’s why I like building and flying model airplanes, because there is so much to investigate, discover and RECOVER.

So, it is the old pizza box cover Taurus laser beam template again. Used this time for some education and simulation.

I have a new template you know so I do use this cover againagain (rerecycling!), to simulate the rudder and fin, and do a second check on the shape.
Look at picture 2 part of the crate picture and
Picture 3 my own picture after some fotoshopping.
Picture 4 original
Picture 5 the studio.

Yes we of the Taurus clan also use simulators so. Simulators?
“As old as the way to Rome!”
