[MT-ALES] old timers

HI Carl,

Neat photo!  Put ailerons, flaps and a modern radio in it, bet it would soar pretty good 🙂.  Might want to change out the ignition engine too.

I’ve been going through some old photo albums and found this dandy.  The kids are, left to right:  my Dad Ed Thuesen, and his younger brothers Sam and Ralph.  The photo was not dated, but I think probably late 1930’s.  Dad was born in ’24.

Check out the plan form of the wings and tails on these free flight models.  They look much like our modern R/C sailplanes!
