2008 Top Gun Invitational - 2008/08

Top: Greg Hahn built and flew the winning Expert Beechcraft D-18. This masterpiece had a unique system for the three-piece wing; the
flaps came off the model when it was taken apart. Note the landing lights.
Above: Second place in Expert went to Dennis Crooks’s P-38 equipped with counter-rotating engines. The big “Forked Tail Devil,” a
Nick Ziroli design, has scale Fowler flaps.

RADIO CONTROL SCALE 2003/09

SPECIFIC ERAS OF aviation generate
the interest of Scale modelers around the
world, whether it’s World War II, the
Golden Age, World War I, the 1950s jet
age, or modern aircraft. Some modelers
build within these prospective eras and
don’t look outside a certain time frame for
subjects to model. It seems that modelers in
Europe really enjoy the World War I-era
airplanes and that interest continues to
grow in the states.
