"This color works good for my 79 years eyes to see. Great kit, I have been a modeler for over 75 years."
Later, Bob wrote:
"I have now about 4 hr on my Delta.I love it and it is so easy to fly."
Bruce's comments: I learned that Bob has aviation running through his veins. He is not only a great modeler, he restored full-scale aircraft, and served his country admirably.
Bob was an aircraft mechanic on these in 1952
Bob was a member of this outfit (you may have heard of them)
This was his ride in CAF airshows in the 80's and 90's
Two planes he restored, both are ex-navy aircraft.
Bob was also a pioneer in early R/C model design. His Oily Bird (shown below)
was a contest winner in the mid 60's and was a popular plane in its day.
