That was great. I remember those days, very few people flew helicopters and now I see why.

It's like I saw a ghost. A neighbor has seen me flying and gave me this on the weekend. It's the Heli above. She's a widow and cleaning out her husband's stuff. If anyone wants a project for nostalgia , it's yours otherwise it makes it on my next dump run.

I had one of these... a Cricket.

Mine never got in the air ... I wasn't able to afford a radio at the time. I'd managed to get the heli and the engine a little later... just never made enough money to finish things up. Circa 1976 give or take a bit...

Thanks for the post. I wish I had the time I would take this frame.
