SEAFORTH, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1945
PLANES THAT FLY
MADE BY HULLETT BOY
During the war Huron county was
one of the important air training
centres of the Dominion, and it is not
surprising that many of the young
people are interested in miniature
aircraft. Few have advanced as far,
however, hi the art of building the
little Machines, as Bob Irwin, son of
Mr. and Mrs, Bert Irwin, of. the Huron;
Highway west, who for the past eight!
years has been building all kinds of
model and miniature planes that '
really fly.
The planes Include little scale solid
models, five inches long, tor desk or-
naments, and range up to gliders, fly-
ing wings equipped with rockets or
jets, dozens of different kinds of reg-
ular planes equipped with rubber
bands or diminutive gas engines, The
larger planes have a wing spread of
ninny feet, the largest being fifteen
feet across.
Bob wasn't very definite just how
he got started building planes, but he
knew it was eight years ago. The
planes- perhaps were not as complicit-
ed as tate ones he builds . now, but
there was a lot of detail 'work about
thern. There isn't such a thing as a
simple plane.
The tools which Bob uses in his
work ere just ordinary small tools,
including screwdrivers. He makes a
special knife which he grinds out of
old hacksaw blades.
fie obtains plans for many ofthe
planes from magazines, or if plans.
especially of new ship„ are not avail-
able, he draws plans to scale on
large. sheets of rough paper.
Most of his models will fly, He
prefers rubber bands for -.motive
power. 'Rob says the tiny gas engines
are'very good, but they are rather ex-
pensive, and quite hard to obtain at
the present time, Tite wee engines
come in different sizes, front a fiftieth
to about one horsepower,
He has successfully built working
Models of the new jet propelled planes
-the jets, . These models use a: kind
of homemade gunpowdery mixture in
the engine. They are really rockets,
since they are limited to the fuel in-
side the combustion chamber. How-
ever, he is experimenting on a real
jet engine which will continuously
feed the explosive into the combus-
tion chamber from a storage unit.
Bob got his hand burned the first
time he tried to start a jet, or rocket
engine. Now he attaches a fuse that
can he lighted by a match and he is
at a safe'<listance when itgoes off.
The rocket models develop a lot of
heat and it is necessary to coat them
With waierglass to protect the in-
flammable lacquer from the ]teat. t
The rocket plane models are so
fast that their wings have to be built
thinner than ordinary models. IIis
first rocket plane had too Hutch wing
thickness and after snaking a short
flight the model dove straight tato the
ground with great force.
He also had a "flying wing" model
equipped with a rocket motor, and
it was this machine which on one oc-
casion nearly knocked the young
manufacturer out. It flew swtfty in a'
circle and struck Bob on the back of
the head lard enough to shear off one
of its wings.
Some of the rocket models use the
sante principle as the German flying
bombs. They are mounted on skids'
instead of wheels, and are launched
from runways. On one model Bob
used thick aluminum wire instead 01
copper tubing for ac. skid, and when
the plane landed he found the heat
dr'om the jet bad melted the aluminum
skid,
His bobby gives Bob a great deal of
pleasure and he is very enthusiastic
about it,. He else finds a ready sale
for the models. He thinks it a fine
hobby for any boy and says it is not
really expensiveas about .ten 'dollars
should cover a year's expenses.
At present he is working on a model j
of Canada's newestplane, the CBT -3j
cargo ship, made by Canadian Car
Foundry Co, Another plane of which
Bob is very proud is a model of a.
flying fortress completely ,scaled in-
-Side and out, and exactly like the real
plane,

SEASON'S GREETINGS
FROM DAUPHIN, MAN.
Dauphin, Manitoba, December 17.
To the Editor, The Seaforth News.
Dear Sir In renewing my sub-
scription to your paper, it might be
interesting to some of your readers
to know' what kind of weather, etc.,
we are having and have had during
the year now fast drawing to a
close, The 'winter of 1944-5 was one
of the finest winters we had seen
for many years, very little snow and
not very cold, The month of March
was a very fine- month, but April
was the reverse, many people passed
the remark that these two months
had exchanged places. Spring, sum-
mer and fall were all out of kilter,
cool and wet, although it did not
rain a great deal, it kept at it by
sprinkling with some foggy weather
there were very few heavy or big
rains and very few real warns days,
thereby delaying the maturing of
all grains and garden vegetables.
The first frost came on Sept. 15th.
with a real 'killing one on the 27th.
The first snow came on the 30th
of October, from which date there
hasbeen more or less snow to this
date. No severe storm has visited us
Yet in this favored part of the Pro-
vince, but it has been very cold for
this season of the year, it was down
to thirty below zero on Dec. 11th
and oft times in the twenties. Not.
withstanding the off year, an aver-
age
verage crop of most all varieties of
grains and garden vegetables, roots,
etc., have been garnered.
This long word reminds me of the
school ma'am who had requested
her pupils to write a sentence con-
taining the word "Notwithstanding"
when one little fellow wrote the
fallowing sentence, "My dad wore g
hole in his trousers but notwith-
standing."
Thanking you for this space. and
at the same time wishing you all,
relatives and friends a Merry Christ-
oras and a happy and prosperous
1946, I remain, yours very truly,
WM. MURRAY.
