PLEASE add planes

HI Scott,

I am going to say the Juno was first built by Billy in 1975.  He used it at the Lincoln NATS in 1976.

I should know the Europa and RD-1 since Aaron and Robby were really in communication over both as Aaron used an RD-1 in his first official "stunt contest" in 1992! LOL!!  But the memory isn't complying right now.  1991 or 1992 on the RD-1 is my "best guess".  The RD-1 was the "forerunner" of the Prowler.  Scott Smith kitted the Prowler after conferring with Bob on the RD-1, so it would be the same "year", AFAIK.

Bob posted quite a bit on the Europa a month or two back.

What "other planes" do you want added?

Here's a link to my web site where I have a history of the Pathfinder series of designs.

If I remember right, the Lincoln Nats was 79 and 82. I could not make it in 79 because I was moving. I did fly R/C pattern there in 82.

Yes 79 was the first Lincoln NATS.  I was in Columbus OHIO going to hands on school for Southwestern Bell at the time.
