No, I didn't start flying until 1977. I was bored and started looking for different builds that I could fake based on catalog information. I think I was able to put together a couple of Coaster kits, a few from RDC, one from AMROCS, and a few Kopter and MRI birds. I combed the old issues of Model Rocketry magazine, the Estes and Centuri design winners, and any stray plans that looked interesting, or especially, seldom seen.
