"...18 pages of CL..."
Finding enough material is a perennial problem of niche interest publications, expecially for those tied to a regular publication date, so I suspect the Editor fell on 18 pages of copy like a starving man being presented with a banquet.
Stop teasing Bill, what is it?

October and November as well! Similar numbers of pages of CL topics, never mind perhaps December's will be a little different.

It'll be too late for the December issue, but Andrew Boddington has just asked me to write this year's Nijmegen report, so I can guarantee that my piece, when it appears, will not feature any CL at all. What's more, if people are nice to me I shall try to focus on the models and keep the full page photos of Tim and me eating pizza on the boat to an absolute minimum. (As I say, if people are nice to me!) |

This should do it. I would have got it at the plunger! I'm surprised our Antipodean friends haven't twigged but I guess they're all in bed.

That's what I meant! Is it based on the Towner plan? |

Yes it's the PE Norman Gamecock, famously arranged for aerobatics via pendulum control and weighing in at 36oz. I won't be anywhere near that weight, although I've built the wings and you could stick a handle on and play tennis with them. I'm confident a lighter version will fly well in a more staid fashion - I believe Alan Jupp sadly lost the original in a flyaway at Old Warden
The plunger? Used as a crashproof basis for the dummy engine - genius!
