Shultzie,
You will not find too much on Eddie. He won the Air Youth Championships at the 1961 Willow Grove Nats. He used an airplane that was designed for the event by John D'Ottavio. The Fox .25 powered airplane was the "Jr Falcon", but it was published as the "Topper" (See picture)
Ed also published a small fun 1/2A airplane in Model Airplane News.
He competed some in combat. Eddie and I also flew Balloon Bust when we flew over the poll (strafing). We consistently finished 1st and 2nd. Ed's primary event was always stunt, and he almost made the FAI team before Juniors and Seniors had special berths.
As a Junior and then a Senior he consistently won against people like Gene Shaffer, Harold Price, Bill Simons, John D'Ottavio, Windy Urtnowski, and Bill Suarez. He left Stunt for many reasons: burn out; college; girls; and another circumstance that I will not discuss.
The second picture is Eddie receiving an award at an early Garden State Circle Burners meeting. Ed's father is to his left as we view the picture.
The third picture is of me and Ed at a contest at Marine Park in Brooklyn.
There were many very good Juniors and Seniors back then, but Ed was perhaps the best that I had personally seen.
When he was forced to sell his home in Rhode Island a few years ago, he left over a hundred trophies in the attic. These were all acquired in a period of only 4 or 5 years.
