Davegee,
30-40 years ago I wanted to compete with K Walters, A Johnson, Platt and all you other guys but raising kids and job didn't allow that. Now at my age I enjoy just being involved in the contests and fly-ins. There are a lot of scale meets in our area and it's fun to see if I can at least fly and not make a fool of myself. Scale people are great!
Best Regards, Rex

CARF P-47 Bubble-Top Canopy Slide Build 2026.

Fairly straight forward and nothing new in technique, but a nice reference IMHO.

Best, LB
