[NSRCA-discussion] Huntsville Contest

[Ronald Van Putte]

The young man was Carson Kruse.  He's 11 years old.  He had his parents, seven members of the Eglin Modelers and many of the other pilots rooting for him.  Remember the name.

Ron Van Putte, who was NOT one of the founding fathers of Pattern.
