Playboy Junior

The SAM site lists 5 Playboy Juniors. They differ in scale and aspect ratios. Some are slab-sided and some have 8 longerons like the Playboy Senior

Playboy Sr. versus Cabin Playboy

Joe Elgin with Tom McCoy's Cabin Playboy





NB: The cabin version is a modification for only the Playboy Senior.  The Junior is an entirely different design (not merely a reduction).   There are slab sided versions and some with stringers on the top and sides like the Senior.   A few different wings exist but in all cases, the Junior has a wider fuselage than the Senior, a longer tail moment,  and all wing variants have a higher aspect ratio with inner panels that are longer than the tip panels.   Curiously, both John Pond and Joe Elgin preferred both the Junior and the Baby Playboy over the Senior when blown up to the original size of the Senior.

Finally figured out how to get these off my new camera and on to Youtube.

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.
