Mark Fechnor - Another great modeler passed today
« on: September 01, 2021, 07:57:43 PM »
Sorry to say my long time friend Mark Fechnor passed away this morning at 6:20. His daughter that was taking care of him called to let me know. Mark was the original designer of the the Big Twin called the Two Much,and also the twin Flight Streak. He also designed a rat racer back in the days when they where going about 110 to 115 mph. Mark had one that going 132mph. Side mount engine and cowled. He was top of line machinist.He will surely be missed by ever one that knew him. Met Mark when I was 16 yrs old. He is not in pain any more. My deepest thoughts and prayers for his children. He had ten of them.
