Title: I Don't Remember That
Post by: Bruce Guertin on June 29, 2021, 03:06:55 PM

I found some 35mm color slides I took a while back. Nothing dated more recent than May 1982. While digitizing them I noticed this

While I built a few A. Brickhaus "Flying Red Horse" profiles I don't have any memory of building this one. It must be mine. It's got my number on and is built in my style. I called a buddy to see if he remembered it. Nope. I know my way home because that's where the food is.

I had the same happen.  I found a stash that I took back in '74 while stationed in Korea.  I didn't know I had a Skylark and a Dolphin.  The pictures brought it all back.  I had to leave them when I came home.  Only had room for my Spitfire and Mustang in shipping container.  Wonder what happened to them.

Looks like a Midwest P63 King Cobra kit possibly.

It looks like a modified Twister.

 I'm betting it's Alan Brickhaus' design, very similar if not identical to the Midwest kit but with a foam wing.

It is. Looks like I built three of them. I've got a new Bob Hunt wing here for another
