The 99 Muskogee Champs are a wrap. (or "Wap" as the Michael Jordan commercial with Elmer Fudd states it) and the results are in. Here we offer some photos, some text and the official results as recorded by contest officials. It's always fun to see what others have done and it is a source of "armchair" modeling to discuss the types and sizes of planes and the powerplants chosen by those who competed. The best way to know though, is to BE THERE in Pensacola next year! Tandy Walker |

It is powered with a 1947 Anderson Spitfire 65 ignition engine with a 15 X 8 prop.We got almost a six minute run on 24 cc's of a five-to-one mix of Coleman lantern fuel and 50W AeroShell aviation oil.

Playboy Ign Scramble--2nd Pure Antique-----------2nd Class A-Ignition LER---4th Class B-Ignition LER---5th Texaco Tgnition--------5th We shared the excitement of competing and Sue now has a much better understanding for why I am so interested in SAM. I think she really enjoyed herself due mostly to the great people she met while she was there. Sue has already indicated she would like to go with me next year to the SAM Champs in Pensacola!....Tandy C. Walker |
