Some listing from Model Aviation

(1/1)

Ty Marcucci:
Here too I am missing some issues, but believe the ones I have all have plans or pertinent info on CLPA. If you find a missing one with the plans, please post it here. Thanks.

Now then, from what I have gathered over the many years reading this mag, they don't publish CLPA plans every issue, but may have CLPA info.  Wynn Paul was the editor of the CL aerobatics section.  He often had photos of three or four planes.  I will list these as "photos" and give what info was given in the article. Many of these planes and people I have never heard of, so if you have Accurate info about their plane(s) please post it. Especially if you are the one in the photo!!
