Despite the bad image we have among you NSRCA guys, we are now enforcing the to-plan building of our planes, and only allow 4-stroke engines and computer radios for convenience and as a nod to "progress".

Flight as a maneuver). I still have a Kraft 6-channel '83 Series radio with synthesized channel selection that has been narrow-banded (by KMI) , so I <u>could</u> use it -- but I won't. ;-{) It uses the 3-lead battery pack, so I'd have to build a new pack for it before I could fly it. Anyway, first 60-degree day (next Monday, here in TN) I plan to go out and pretend to be Ron or Jim. lol<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>I couldn't recognize what Phil K was flying in Doylestown -- what was his plane?<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><strong><i><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#8B8B8B'>Phil Spelt, KCRC Emeritus</span></i></strong><b><i><span style='font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#8B8B8B'><br><strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>AMA 1294, Scientific Leader Member</span></strong><br><strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>SPA L-18, Board Member</span></strong><br><strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>(865) 435-1476v (865) 604-0541c</span></strong></span></i></b><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='margin-bottom:6.75pt;text-align:center'><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><hr size=2 width="100%" align=center id=zwchr></span></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'>Thanks for this Scott, Mike, and the guy who made this, Jay Gerber.<br>I went to that WC with my Dad as a spectator. Amazing to see Jim Whitley, Phil Kraft, and Ron Chidgey at their prime. I remember Doc Edwards, Team Manager, as a super nice guy.<br>The thing I remember most from that WC in those days of ballistic pattern was that the Europeans had taken to throttling back on the downline of loops, etc. Not many people were doing that at the time. Most Americans kept full bore all the way around.<br>As to the simplicity of the sequence, try flying a plane of that period. Limited power, fairly high wing loadings, and fairly short coupled tails made them a handful.<br>I noticed also that virtually none of the radio equipment manufacturers that I saw in the film are around today. Kinda sad.<br>Amazing film.<o:p></o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'>Jon<o:p></o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:6.75pt'><span style='font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:black'>On Jan 27, 2016 11:42 AM, Scott McHarg via NSRCA-discussion <<a href="mailto:nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org">nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org</a>> wrote:<br>><br>> Here's a video that Mike Mueller posted on Facebook and was produced by our own Jay Gerber.
