I never got into RC or U-control planes back then, but I had some interest, so this reminds me of watching other kids fly theirs...

They never looked as good as the one on the box. ;D

Getting dizzy yet, kid?

This is something I never saw- flying through paper screens.

I also never saw U-line planes that could drop bombs... awesome!

lol, I have two control line planes hanging on the wall in my garage here. I inherited the one from a lady I used to work with when she found it in her basement. The other one was built by my dad many years ago. Last summer we got some fuel, tuned up the engines and flew them quite a few times. Kinda goofy, but fun at times :) Better than sitting at home watching reruns on tv :)
