Just so everyone knows, this is the Super Combat Streak. One of my favorite planeS as a kid and a great candidate for the Stunt 25 event (which has been dormant but I’m hoping to revive it).

I have one ready for test flights that was is a clone of a kit.   Built up leading and trailing edges.   Also did the Flite Streak.

   Hey Doc;
    Do these share the same wing? Is it your camera angle or is the Flite Streak bigger? Just curious.
  Type at you later,

Walter;

Great to see you back at the helm.
Glad you are feeling better and back to working again.

Will be glad to have warmer weather here in a couple/few weeks so I can get into trimming the big Sakitomi 60+ ready for the season.

Dan, the Flite Streak and Super Combat Streak share the same wing, stab/elevator, and vertical fin. The only difference is the profile vs. box fuselage.

Clint has it right.  It is the camera angle.    D>K

 Here's mine, built from Walt's excellent kit. As a personal preference only I added my own aluminum L/G and a tailwheel over the stock single wheel gear. Controls consist of a Brodak nylon bellcrank with Tom Morris leadout wire, Central Hobbies carbon tube pushrod and titanium inserts with Du-Bro ball links and horn. Finish is all Brodak dope. All in all, it's built pretty much out of the box. This one's a hoot to fly. y1

His engine is a SuperTigre C-35. Prop in the pic looks to be an old Top Flite Super M. Probably a 10/6, but I don’t know if that’s the prop he’s actually flying it with.

           I will also comment as I have one of Walt's Combat Streaks. The plane is the cat's meow. My son and I truly enjoy this plane. I have owned about 6 Flite Streaks in my time of flying and this one stands out above the others. Ken

 Clint's got it right, great combo for this airplane. It's hard to beat a good running .35 combined with the 'ol 10/6 Super M's.

Hi Guys...

Thanks for all the kind, caring and uplifting words.

The move to Al. and my health issues really took a bite out of me but
all in all I am really feeling much better, so I hope to stay really busy. ;-)

I plan on releasing a few new models this year but I truly don't want to
hijack this post, so I will post that on a separate post for all of that stuff.

Thank you all for your kind words.

Thank you and God Bless
Walter
