In June we shared a “Throwback Thursday” photo from The RC Geek on Facebook. Here are a few of the memories our followers shared with us:

Douglas: This what got me started in ducted fans. I had this exact jet. Now it’s all electric and super reliable. BVM, Scozzi & K&B 7.5 was the ticket then.

Toufic: I had the Midwest .049 one ... a disaster to fly ... still a glorious era.

Chris: Bad hats, bad clothes, awesome plane. I remember those days.

John: I enjoyed this time in RC. I had the A-4 and F9F-8 Cougar from Jet Hangar, and scratch-built a Ziroli F9F-2 Panther. Fun times!
