Does anybody know if this was ever a production model. If from the estate of Bill Osborne. I remember when Bill was testing this mode from Cox a few years ago. He mentioned that he was working with them to develop a RTF to be used for Mouse Racing for the kids.

Member from our club, including myself have never seen this in production. I would like to know a little more information about this model before I put it on eBay.

I'm waiting for you answer, Larry!

Well,


I'm not sure if it had the same name but Cox/Este made it. I flew one with a buddy just last summer and it was new. I think they called it a EZ Flyer or something.

Hope this helped,

Tim Wiltse

The model is a production C*x model. Phillippe desLespinay designed it, I made a few corrections to get it to fly right. Very nice potential racer, though at the Nats one year, we had a come-one-come-all mouse race using the P-39 instead. Makes a great event, by the way. Bill Wisniewski's (hope I spelled that right!) boy won it, as I recall.

Heman,
I'm holed up in Taft right now, but this weekend I'll be home in Long Beach. I had a book once that showed a picture of this plane and told its name. I think they called it a Manta. I look this weekend. I had one once but sold it at MECA years ago.
Any more activity with the Musciano event?

We will have our 2nd annual Musciano event this year around the same time, late September. I hope we can get a few of you L.A. guys to come. Check our Aeronut calendar at www.aeromaniacs.com or the WAM calendar at www.wamsite.com
