Balsawood Planes



Balsawood Planes

Part of growing up in the Burg back in the day was Balsawood
Planes. I got them from Marsh Hobby Shop on South Broad
Street and at Campi's.

And the little metal clip on the nose? You could adjust it and between that and the horizontal stabilizer, you could get a good loop going. With a little tab of Scotch tape on a wing you could try to get it to roll but that usually just ended up in splintered disaster.
