Title: Looking For Scores From The 1984 World Champs
Post by: Les McDonald on August 19, 2009, 07:45:33 PM
Does anyone out there have scores for all four rounds from the 1984 Chicopee World Champs?
Wynn Paul sent me the final results but I would like to evaluate the round scores for an article I'm working on.
A photo of the finalized scoreboard would also work.
There was not much published on this contest so research has been a challange.

Mike,
Thanks once again. I already had the info from that website but it did give me the idea to look at some websites from Europe and sure enough I found what I needed on "fesselflug".

Les...
If you are lurking...I know the USA-1 by Billy W. and the Spectrum by Jimmy C. but could you put a name on who's who with these other USA Models...I see the photo with Bob Baron....but I don't recognize Mal Munroe from Danver' Mass.??? and his interesting and beautifully crafted stunter?
Who is this Zhu Younan whooonan who who..holding up the winning cup and where did he come from...and what plane was he flying? What country is PRC???

 I have never seen his name before or since this photo from 84???
Great shot of Bob Baron...very very few photos have been taken of the gifted Robert Baron over the years who had left this earth all to soon.
