I remember him as Tony.
« on: October 06, 2014, 09:32:45 AM »
Anyone know this model?

It belonged to Tony. And I cannot remember Tony's last name.

I made the graphics for this model years ago, at least 6, 7 or possibly 8 years ago?

Tony was special.

Tony had great enthusiasm for his love of the hobby and expressed it.

We talked often about many things besides CL models. In fact, I had little to offer Tony when we talked CL.

I recently found out that Tony is no longer with us. He may have passed last January?

I'm hoping there are others who knew Tony and will enjoy remembering him and this composite model that he loved so well.

Hats off to Tony!  H^^

You might call the AMA and inquire as to the owner via his AMA number on the wing.  Just ask for the name and address of the owner, nothing else. D>K

Ty,

My interest isn't in the model. I know Tony purchased the model and said it came in a special case.

I heared about Tony passing from the individual who now has this model.

Tony was a great guy, so I thought I'd mention him to the members.

That's Arkusha A-47 from early 2000's. Don't remember the builder but could it be the same who makes the composite Blue Maxes? At least construction is similar. Originally sold by Modusa, an US Stalker distributor. Made in Ukraine.
Tested those long ago, nothing impressive.
