Plans and photos from Model Builder
« on: July 18, 2009, 06:27:31 PM »
I am missing or can't find the first years issues and none after the Dec 78 issue. I think I let my subscription expire after that one.   "CL" refers to the Control Line section. It had various editors and their preference shows in the types of CL planes presented. Mostly combat, speed, racing, very, very little CLPA.
