and another...
« on: December 27, 2012, 04:16:53 PM »

  Carter Alphonso got his "wings" today, he soloed from take off, thru flight, and made a real good landing.
  This is the young (10 yrs) man that Richard Oliver gave a model and engine to at our Baton Rouge, La. contest in Oct.

  Carter picked up some lines, don't remember the donor, handle from Bob Dore' and a gallon of fuel from Andy Chase of Hobby Towne also in Baton Rouge.

  Seems that he is on his way...

Gil,

Great for Carter! kudos for him. He must be jumping for joy!  #^

CFC Graphics will be glad to donate custom graphics for Carter's first model or one he may acquire later on down the line.

What a surprise custom graphics would be for Carter!  :o

Nice to see you promote the hobby, especially with children. H^^

I'm sure you feel the same way with adults. ;D

Young or old, it's a great hobby and it's never to late to start participating with it!

Keep up the good work, you're a great guy!
