The good Colonol Trostle already has a small turbine engine. I'll wager that when he is ready, we'll see our first true jet powered stunter.

Looking at the two versions in the bottom picture, the Push-me Pull-me one looks similar to a design I've had drawn out for a few years. It's one of those projects that I haven't yet got to. For lack of a better name, I've called it, "Bad Attitude".

Ya know, John, when you get to a certain level of insanity, it becomes a virture. That's so nuts that I like it.   

I suspect that you and Gordan have already left for the Regionals. I'll be there tomorrow.

You think I'm Crazy???  Uhh, let me rephrase that;  What you thinkin Dondo??? 

Ironically I was helping out in the Kondor RC booth in Toledo this year, one of their product offerings (see pix) is an Adams 500; around 100" span with twin 90's.

HEY LEFT-COASTERS: I seem to vaguely remember reading about a push-pull twin flew and placed(?) in Sr at the 67 Nats?  We did not attend but heard about it - might not have been 1967 either.  Have NO idea of WHO flew it or what it was called.  Anyone remember that? 

Is there a HISTORIAN in the house???   

Uhhh? Me?? Think that YOU are CRAZY??? HA!  LL~Only thing that I can assue you is that I KNOW THAT I HAVE BEEN REALLY WACKO' FOR YEARS N' YEARS!
but I do know that a BUNCH of us stunt grunts were standing around at the 67 nats...watching that BIG YELLOW BOOMER of RICH LOOMIS fly one of the best patterns of at the nats with that K&B 45 -35 powered model TO PERFECTION!
Bob Hunt, Ted Fancher, and I think Keith Trostle was all standing there with our eyeballs n' jaws a hangin while we watched Rich CREATE HISTORY on that hot sunbaked tarmac that day! Clearly that big twin...was one mean flyin machine in Rich's hands.
