The origional Paragon Kits were produced by Gene Walloch who was a production Engineer for Mac/Dac and a master craftsman. Walloch had tooling for all of the curved parts which were sanded to shape. As an old freeflighter, Gene's wood selection was superb. If any of the spruce in the old kits is warped, replace it with new wood.
The Paragon was indeed designed for night flying and was very sucessful in the light and the dark. I redall that the First contest the Paragon ws entered in was at Night fly in Canoga Park in 76 or 77. I think Bill Watson and i both flew the same plane and took first and second. Not a bad beginning and still the Floater by which all others are measured. Slobod is still alive and kicking. He is currently prepairing for the Bent Wing 2 day at Visalia.
