We went to bed early last night and I slept great after the big day. I had breakfast and puttered on the computer most of the day until I got a call from my friend Steve. He was on the way back from the Fun Fly and said I had won a couple of things and could he stop by and drop them off, of course I said we would be here.
Boy was I surprised when he told me I won the best scratch built model with my B-36.
I also won the raffle for a 50CC SU26M, it is a big plane like the ones I have pictures of in Saturday's post. It has an 88 inch wing span and weighs 12 to 15 pounds and is made for a 50 cc gas engine. The funny thing is, the only motorcycle I ever had was a Tuhatsu 50 which had a 50cc engine. I plan on putting an electric motor in it after getting my fingers wacked Thursday by the 52 cc one in the Sopwith. I saw several Saturday that had 50cc equivalent electric motors and they flew great. Steve let me download the pictures he took off of his camera.
Since I wasn't there Sunday, I am not in this picture of the award winners that I got from Steve's camera. We had a nice visit before we went to Steve's car and unloaded the huge box the new plane is in.
