It's why I linked his user name handle with "@". If he has notifications turned on, it would alert him. When I did that with ian1954, he responded.

Jim got into building bicycles.. and also brought a son into this world around the same time. This was also a time where the Roselle family would relocate from Arizona to............. I think Colorado.

Some pics from back when I knew more..







The above image pretty much says it all..

This was circa 2018 and that little man would be 4 years old now! How about a pic of ya'll Jim?

Thanks Roddie, that Wall Street Journal on the photo is a July 2017 edition if my eyes serve me well...

You're probably correct on that Andras. I really hope that Jim sees these posts.. and lets us know how he and his family are. Jim's segue from aero-modeling to building bicycles came; just as the family was about to relocate.. which was in 2018.

Before he moved; Jim mailed me a parcel.. a good size boxful of plan-pages; mostly 1/2A U-Control sport/stunt/speed designs.. many of which are the Dick Sarpolus sport-scale designs. No less than 3 dozen drawings.. including a a few goodies that he knew I'd probably put to use. '

 

Jim also offered some models and gear for sale in the Spring/Summer of 2018. I have some saved images from then.

Here's his way-cool Lil' Satan..





and some other very cool stuff...............







I can't remember if Jim put that pan-design in the air..  do any of you remember?
