Ringmaster Fly-a-Thon Residual Effects !

Ringmaster Fly-a-Thon Residual Effects !
And...we have 'Ringmaster Fly-a-Thon After-Shocks' !!!
Talked to my new control line bud, Billy Lang, yesterday, and we're looking to squeeze in some C/L flying after a Swap Meet in Columbia, Illinois this coming Sunday!
Our afternoon daylight hours are about to become dramatically shorter, thanks to the time change, but it seldom takes me more than 30 minutes to totally peruse Swap Meet offerings (like a really fast buzzard, swooping through), so I'll have time to get a righteous lunch break (hot dogs sold by the hosting club) before stringing cables back at Breezy Hill in Chester.
Want to show off my new gift-Nobler, hopefully this time in winds less than 18-20 mph !
Also, Leo Edler is getting himself an S-1 Ringmaster kit (he flew Billy's S-1 with my Super at the Fly-a-Thon), and other 'retired' circle turners are showing interest also.
I'll also become an official member of the Breezy Hill Flyers on this trip, so I'm back in a club...THAT FLYS CONTROL LINE !!!!!
So, maybe I'll have some cool photos here shortly!

Couple of good ol Ring rats there.
I'm building a couple of teeny ones. Maybe I'll get an electric motor for the Micro Stunter with the 18" wing. That'll save me some considerable $$ over buying an eBay TD .01, as much as I'd prefer it. My slat winger is a piece of music wire and a couple of hinges away from being ready for the Traveling Engine.

I want to build and fly a built up fuselage Super Ringmaster either from scratch which I have full-size plans for or buy the Micro-Scale Models, Inc. Super Ringmaster CL laser-cut model kit $129.95:

Yeah, it's a Super....still, for me, the definitive Ringmaster since my Uncle Wayne first let me fly his in 1968-69.
Mine is a Swap Meet Rescue from several years ago, that I recovered, flew, crashed (one more loop syndrome), and rebuilt and recovered again. She's heavy bird, guys here would probably think they're flying a cement truck if they took her around, but she still cuts around good enough for my waning reflexes.
The engine is a Fox .35 I got back in 1972 or so, and is occasionally accommodating enough to give me the coveted 4-2 break...tho it decided to tear around like a pylon racer at the Fly-a-Thon...
