Is his name Darwin Ullendahl?

That's quite some work on the landing gear. They appear to be working compression struts.

That's Darwin Ulledaul. Great guy and VP of our club Sky Kings of the Ring of Greater KC. The ship is great. Darwin built it with a lot of direct input from Al. RO Jett .76.

Nice workmanship. It's not a small model!

Dave - Thanks for the name spelling correction, had a hard time reading the forms we had

It is a beautiful airplane and received a well deserved win. Congratulations

I believe that is his second version. Seems the first one met a light pole in a parking lot. Darwin is one great guy and I'm glad I know him.

Dave_Trible · « **Reply #18 on:** September 24, 2015, 12:46:30 PM »

I think it's the same one- repaired.

Beautiful ship! The nose detail is killer.

Just beautiful. Does Al's wonderful design justice.

Wow thanks for all the pics Fred, sincere pleasure talking with you. First time to make it to St. Louis for c/l. Had a great time flying and meeting everyone I see on the website. Always wanted to meet the famous Robert Storick (you know he's not as tall as I thought he would be)

. Finally pulled the Rabe 51 off the wall after procrastinating for a year and a half. It's last contest was in Topeka Kansas. Four years ago at it's first contest in Topeka it crashed on landing in super high winds, (bad decision to fly on my part). Spent the next year rebuilding. I did have another Rabe mustang that John Holiday has gracefully reminded me of. It was a Snaggletooth 59in span. This Millennium was Al's last version sporting a 63in span and I think it is 700sqs. I mentioned to Al during my Snaggletooth build I was interest in enlarging it with all the larger power plants now available. Turned out he already had done it with the Millennium 1, so I had to have one. He already had the laser parts available. Sent me a build video and copy of his plans he built his on including glue spots, fingerprints and footnotes. My plane Millennium 2 is an end result of his experiments and flight testing to determine it needed some changes such as a longer nose moment for better CG. His tutorial on SS website has good development details and I think they worked out perfect on mine. Don't mean to be long winded but I can never thank Al enough for his help making these projects possible. Shoot out to James Mills helping me pit.

That would be Ro-Jett .76 with a Brian Eather carbon 15.3 x 5.5

Bring it to VSC-28 in Tucson next March, and fly it in Classic.

Avaiojet · « **Reply #26 on:** September 27, 2015, 08:37:57 AM »

Are there photos of other models that were in this event?
