Mine was an Early Bird. Kind of a Gentle Lady type plane but with a glass fuse that looked a lot cooler to me at the time. I believe that was 1979, maybe 1978. I still have the fuse. It seems to have followed me through a good dozen moves or more. It survived the tosses off the baseball backstop we used before we found the slope!
