Simpson Cavalier
« on: October 05, 2007, 03:08:29 PM »
Awhile back, someone posted a picture of John Simpson's latest Cavalier. It was a red (or pink), gray and white paint job. Somehow, I misplaced the picture. Can someone point me to the correct thread?

Thanks,

Randy

Randy,

John had the one pictured at Brodak's this year . You can identify  his models history/date built  by the Tail number.Started at 1 and is currently on 13.. I questioned him as the thought of putting a # 13 on the red and Gray one .. He is not superstitious

Very nice plane and avery serious competitor at whatever event he is in .The red is a real close color match to 1955 GM Color Dusk Rose as used on 55 Chevy .  His was a mixture of different  Dope colors ..

Attached is group shot at Brodak's 2007

Randy,

I think they were just tired of holding their planes, Can't get a bunch of stunt guys to stand still for too long .Thank  go to Elwyn for taking the Carolina Gang picture this year.

Look real close in the picture, The three members of the 2008 US Control Line Scale (  FAI F4B ) team are in it, Dale Campbell, Dick Schneider and Chuck Snyder
