    have a VersaCad backup on 3.5" floppies that were rendered useless when Win95 came out.   double     who at MS dropped the ball on that one? would actually love to get back to Graphite Vellum CAD, that's a good one.

    Let's hear from the new crew!

    no insults here.  i'll be curious to see how your Cap does on 20cc.  i had a Lanier 1/4 scale Extra with a Zenoah G23 that flew fine but was a little under scale in terms of performance.
