P3, I dug this up from the archives. Link below.

A photo scanned from the August 23rd 1991 "Hollywood Reporter" article on soaring, "The Quiet Ride".
It shows an ASW20 - without the taily bit - in the rotisserie at Glass Teck Unlimited. And Rick Wagner with arms folded. Nostalgia for R12 folks.

Also visible is Rick's model of "Rare Bear", of course its analog R/C failed impressively at high speed!

Bonus: If you look in the folder with a familiar name, there may be soaring cartoons for winter reading.
