Control Line Aerobatics - 2009/05
The Hole Shot starts looking like a whole airplane
OUR PROJECT Hole Shot model is nearing the point where it
will be ready to be assembled into one piece. Last time we
installed the control system and glued the wing halves together.
The assembly should be dry by now.
AMA Convention 2004 - 2004/05
So long, Pasadena! Hello, Ontario! The annual AMA
Convention was held for the first time at its new venue—the
Ontario Convention Center in Ontario, California—January 9-
11, 2004. And from all indications from those who attended, it was a
resounding success.
AMA Convention 2005 - 2005/04
I’VE JUST RETURNED from AMA
Convention 2005, which took place January
7-9. This was its second year in the Ontario
Convention Center in Ontario, California, and
it represents the 28th consecutive year in the
show’s lineage.
This event was originally named the
“International Modeler Show.” It was created
by Bill and Anita Northrop, who at that time
owned and published Model Builder
magazine. To say that this event has continued
to grow in the six years since AMA took the
reins would be an understatement.
Building Wingtips - 2008/03
THE DETAILS are what usually make one model
stand out from others on the field. One of the most
often overlooked details is wingtip design and
execution. Finishing the end of a wing with a
distinctive tip shape, which is also well crafted, adds
a great deal of character to an airplane.
