Playboy Jr.

Fred Mulholland often leaves the SAM Champs with fewer models than he had upon his arrival; though seldom as a result of crashes or fly aways. 


This keen competitor once again gave us a gift for helping him on the flight line with timing, launching and retrievals.


This Playboy Junior that he had been flying for the past few years in the Ohlsson .23 special event now awaits the beginning of a new life as an electric model with Paul Ryan of Pennsylvania.
