Combat was fun back in the 60's when we were still trying to get planes to run over 100 mph. I think my average speed back then was about 95 without a streamer. I think in 64 I finally had one consistently go over 100 mph minus streamer, but, for me was a lot of work to fly a match. Was flying Big Irons, Voodoos and Giant Killers. Engines were Foxes and Johnsons. I think that is why speed limit is making combat fun again. Seems to me I used to be one of those skinny kids back then. DOC Holliday

My old Big Iron shown below...had a Fox 36x BB (or somethin like that...and a baby pasifyer' tank that always had a habit of "poppin-off" at the wrong time
