Philippe's Belgian Masterpiece
Bruce writes:
Philippe from Belgium is proud of his special Delta Vortex, and
he should be! He really went all out with this one by installing Robart
retracts, a formed balsa cowl, and stylish wingtips. Even better,
he documented his construction with lots of photos in a build thread on
RC Universe. His screen name is "salmonbug." If you are thinking
about retracts for your DV, you really need to read through this thread:
Tragic News from Belgium
Philippe informed me that his
beautiful daughter Stephanie was killed by a drunk driver. Just
10 years old, Stephanie was helpful in the shop and was learning to
fly. Philippe proudly relates that she was the youngest girl in Belgium
able to fly a Four-Star in inverted flight. This future pilot now
has her angel wings and will fly forever in the hearts of her family
and loved ones.
