This was the first control line contest I ever attended. This contest brought me back into the hobby since my childhood days. At the time, I did not know anyone in this video, if you recognize yourself back then, make no comment to this video clip on Youtube.

My name is Heman Lee. I met Bill Osborne in 1997 and was amazed in his efforts to mentor the next generation in this great hobby. This web site is dedicated to Bill Osborne, who founded the Bill Osborne Model Airplane Flying Field in Alameda, Bill designed this model as a trainer for his youth modeling program. He has allowed me to share this Platter design with all of you on the Internet.  I would appreciate any Platter stories and picture you have. Please Email or send them to me so I can share them with others on the internet.

Bill passes away in 2003 and I hope to honor his legancy with this web page.
