RC Scale

By Rachelle Haughn

Saturday, June 19, was the final day of the RC Scale Nats. Flying was canceled because of weather and the awards were handed out at the Claude McCullough Education Facility.

Jack Buckley's Fairchild 24 took first place in Designer Scale, first in F4H, got the High Static award, and won Pilots' Choice for Best Civilian aircraft.
