I did CL for a while back in the early/mid 70's. My last control line plane was a Sterling model (I think) but I can't remember which one. It had a tissue and dope covering (yellow), with a KB .35 engine. I spent many hours constructing it, only to have a girlfriend (later to become my wife) try to fly it, at my insistence. She did pretty good for a half circle, until the model nosed into the ground behind her. I asked her (screamed) why she didn't turn around, and she told me that she thought that you didn't have to, that I was just doing it to show off.... :-0
Oh well. That was my last CL model, but I still have the engine!
