what I especially enjoy about this is knowing that just 3 hours earlier, the DC-3 that you see through the windows was parked right where Karl launched...

Look for a copy of June '92 Model Aviation Magazine.

Sorry, I don't. I've been out of touch with Karl for many years....although you might find him through the SOTS club in Philly.

I found that it was published in the June 1992 issue of Model Aviation.
