stick and tissue, Duco cement. My grandad bought me a Brown Jr and I built
a Berkeley Super Buccaneer, which only flew for 15 seconds because it was

30s.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>My transmitter was homemade and I still have it. I also
have the ECE receiver and the Bonner SN escapement (rubber-powered) that moved
the rudder. I left the Kitten in the basement of my Dayton, OH
home for the kid whose father bought my house when I was transferred to
Washington, DC. I wonder if it's still around. Probably not.
