Re: [RCSE] Can anybody identify this plane?
I have to agree with Marc. That does look like a Pulsar fuse and wings. Not sure about the stabs. I have a set of foam cores in the basement for a Pulsar from way back, mid 90's I think.

Re: [RCSE] Model Aviation Nats 2005 issue
I have to disagree with you Jack when you said that the AMA wants readers to see power stuff and free-flights. All they want us to see is all the advertisements. Where there actually any articles in this months issue? By the way, nice picture Johnny! Ed Franz RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Cool club meeting ideas
I remember back when I flew with the SBSS group in San Jose we had a build and fly an indoor H/L contest. If I remember right the club provided the materials and the team brought the radio gear. I think it was a one or 1.5 hour build. I remember being on the winning team one year with a 30 second or so flight. harder than you think in a small room. I don't know if they still do the contest or not, hey Brian Chan do you guys still stage the contest? Ed Franz Former SBSS, now CSS RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Re: top or bottom driven ?
You know it's kind of funny. We spend all this time trying to build the cleanest plane possible with internal linkages and as little drag as possible trying to get that last bit of performance. Then we strap on the large drag inducers know as skegs to stop us on landing. What's wrong with this picture? :-) Ed Franz RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Re: Loft FRU
Thanks to Tom (I bet I can out climb you in 2 minutes Steve) Siler, and Jerry ( Who decided on a13 minute max?) Shape for a excellent contest. There was very little easy air at Muncie yesterday.On my first flight of the day Johnny Berlin and I chased each outer across the sky for 13 minutes from thermal to thermal. We never did get very high, never too much above launch height. If you got up and out, you went very far down wind. It became a contest of guts to see how far downwind you dared fly. A lot of hero or zero flights. The landings got harder as the day went on and the wind picked up. I had my Graphite picked up and slammed down upside down in the landing zone. It shattered one half of my V-Tail. It can be fixed (thanks Tom!) Anyone out there have a V-tail for a Graphite Comp the might want to sell? It would not hurt to have a spare. Good to see all my buddies on a great day of soaring! Thanks to JR for all the support, and Marc for putting it all together. Can't wait till next year!

Re: [RCSE] Gordy...Who is this gentleman reply
Well Jack, since you opened the door... For a rickety old man he sure does get around. Europe, Australia, Kentucky... A harmless beggar? Maybe, but He and I know what showed up at my door from Norway that he found for me. (NO, it was not a mail-order blond bride.) I could tell a few stores about him. Maybe the one about painting the fuse with servos in it. The only time I have ever seen any color servo other than blue in a Gordy plane. Some people think of him as brash and boastful. I prefer to think of him as confident. I always seem to have fun when he is around, except for maybe the time he almost brained me DSing at Brookville. Enough said, want to add anything Bruce, Barry, Paul, Rudy? Ed Imagine if you can a rickety man, sort hobbled over, Like an older peasant like you would see on Loerd of the rings, not with a bundle of wood on his back, but a sports tube, with his prized volz power pike. He begs for places to stay, food, as a last resort he will spend his own money, but would rather not. He travel the land pillaging contests for their wood, and if he can't do that, he gathers their young, bores them to death, with proficies of flight, and other aeronautical mysteries, fully explainedin his own mind. Yes, a harmless beggar, who will sell you things you don't need, or things that won't work. Will take advantage of your kindness, cause he knows he can when he looks at you with his puppy dog eyes !!! Oh heck I better quit, I am gonna cry !!! Someone else want to jump on this one..ED !!
