To those of you fortunate enough to have seen, the Navy Blue Angels perform their fantastic precision-flying act at the Nationals, no introduction to the Cougar is necessary. To the rest of you, well-maybe the pictures of this model will speak for themselves. The wing span is 281/4 in.; length, 33 1/4 in.; flying weight is about 13 1/2 oz. Power is supplied by the new Cox Thermal Hopper free flight engine, selected because of its terrific speed which was measured by strobe light with the metal fan shown at 17,200 rpm!
