I ran into this picture today as I was clean up my out building. I thought someone might remember it and get a grin out of it.

I heard that he was awarded the light assembly at the banquet. I understand it never made it to Texas, it was deposited in a dumpster somewhere southwest of Illinois.

Hmmm. I dont know, but I'll find out. I didnt know anything about this event prior to today.

You guys need to find a circle somewhere. This flying in street intersections is just too dangerous. LL~

He ran his planes into lots of things. The side of a Bradlees department store (after snapped lines) was another good one.

I haven't. But I did fly my inboard wing into my fuel can once, and I felt a lot better about it once the illustrious Bear did something similarly, er, impressive.
I saw one notable individual who shall remain nameless fly his i-beamer, perhaps the prototype Juno, inverted into his own tool box.

into his own tool box.
Much better when you hit it square & center .
Gotta ' Schnick Schnick ' a cople of times one day , on the glide . Couldnt find any marks on any of the aeroplanes .
The Line up and the center relationship . All my own aeroplanes . Definately Two from the ' clicks ' .

There have probably been many, but I've heard of one intetesting case when the lines got slack and the plane came into the circle and hit the pilot.
