Estes - Red Alert Gallery

I don't have much much to say about this one. I had it in inventory and built it in a hurry for a duration contest because it was handy. I don't even remember whether it was streamer or parachute. I like the red look and the unusual nose but it did not do all that well as a duration model. It placed because of all the DQs.

My paint job, as you can tell, is very original.

I can find no record of it having flown since that original outing. At present, I could not even tell you where it is.

I want to build a "reproduction" of this and call it "The Gamete."

That will be 3 Ave Marias and a round dozen paternosters.

Oops. Methodists don't do that.
