Original copy of “Prop Wash”

I found the very first copy of “Prop Wash” aka Stunt News.

July 1973.

Anyone still have there first copy?

   I would have to look. I wasn't a member yet at the beginning but I have inherited a bunch, just haven't organized them yet.

That was the name of the Detroit Aero Modelers newsletter going back to at least 1975....

    And that may be the reason they changed the name to Stunt News, since there were other news letters around with the same name.

Windy changed it to Pro Stunt News when he took it over....

The GSCB was formed in 1961. Their Newsletter was Propwash.

Our EAA Chapter 30 was formed in 1957 and the newsletter was also called “ Propwash”.
It is also the first International Chapter and is still located in Edmonton Alberta Canada.
