about 10 years ago, a friend's toddler came to my office in the house.
He wanted to look at my Ringmaster Jr.
I let him handle it, then he started crushing the wing ribs.
He thought it was fun.
I built it from a die crunched Sterling kit, and the wing ribs were from very light and soft balsa.
I got it repaired two years ago, flown many times since.
Stuff happens, and I can't blame the kid.
