Mmmmm... Challa is GOOOD!

It's the acid in all that pickled stuff that gives you heartburn.

Or the dipping in chickenfat...

Who said I wanted real Mexican food?

I was in the mood for Taco Bell, not for Mexican food....

I am NEVER in the mood for Taco Bell, when REAL Mexican food is available.

Yay!

I just picked up a complete, NIB 72" Wanderer (Mark's Models version)! I can't wait to trace out all the parts and make a balsa crunchie!

Hey! Off-topic talk about GLIDERS?

What can I say... I'm a rebel!

My very first RC plane was a Drifter II. It didn't fly all that well. I'm sure it was the plane's fault, since I was a natural-born master pilot. The Drifter didn't last all that long. Then I got a Wanderer, which was much easier to build and flew soooo much better! I built quite a few of those Wanderers even after moving to glow fuel planes.

I might still have some pictures of my planes from the 1980's & 1990's somewhere. I'll have to dig around and see if I can find them.

1993-ish with a riser 100, My dad and his 9 year old son, still have that plane even though it's been smashed to bits at least 2 very major times. Trans blue and white, worst colors to keep track of in the sky ever...

Thanks for turning me on to this thread, kpeevyhouse

Hey! Titan finally got a post!


I sure hope that you started from page 1 and read all the way through this thread.

IIRC, one of my Wanderers was white, transparent blue, and sky blue. I thought it looked pretty back then, but most of the time all I could see were the white bits.

Hmm.... I have an un-flown Slow Stick that I suppose I could call my first "finished" RC plane. First RC plane (kit) I purchased was a 2M Riser. lol.. I bought it 20 years ago, and it STILL needs to be covered.

(I still haven't figured out how I want to do the fuselage; whether I want to try to glass it, or just paint it. I know I do NOT want to try to Monokote it. )

Geez, I didn't know it's been 20 years! That poor Riser.... feeling so neglected.

The white bits are the tastiest...
