The history of Navy Carrier
The CL Navy Carrier event has been flown at the
National Aeromodeling Championships for 63 years. The
first time it appeared was at the 1950 Nats at the Dallas
Naval Air Station. For many years, the U.S. Navy sponsored the
Nats as part of its recruiting efforts, and the practice continued
for approximately 25 years, producing fond memories of Navy
hospitality for many of our “seasoned” modelers!
