Special Supplement to October 2004 Newsletter

Bob Cates was a member of our Springfield RC Club.  He has passed away and his widow would like for the club members to have an opportunity of purchasing one or more of his lovely planes that he built.  Bob didn't want to fly RC in spite of many of us nagging at him.   Instead he would go to his workroom and build on his planes, all of which were built to fly, complete with radio and engine.  I have been asked to help in the dispersal of the planes.  Sleeth's Hobby Shop is assisting in this.  I have placed photos, which don't do the planes their due, and information about each in this supplement.  Please direct any inquiries about the planes and their purchase to me, Russell G. Rhodes, 417-889-8655.  All proceeds will go Mrs. Reba Cates.
