Well here's a British Wakefield enthusiast who found out that Zaic's New Yorker IV won the 1938 Stout Trophy with a flight of 17 minutes, 6.2 seconds. It seems that Ramon here was none too happy with the New Yorker's performance, saying "May the Gods forgive me but this was probably my worst ever Wakefield?" and quoting a friend who claimed to have been at the Stout Trophy event, "I met Danny Shields for the first time. Chat turned to my unsuccessful efforts with New Yorker IV and Danny surprised me thus. He claimed to be at Wayne County that day when it lifted the Stout Trophy for Frank Zaic and he concurred, the model really was a hound and the "Trash Mover" (his words) that caught Frank's model that day "would have lifted a Sherman Tank"."
Wow! Strong words, considering that this plane qualified to travel to the 1937 Wakefield International Cup in Great Britain, at Fairey's Aerodrome, on Sunday August 1, 1937. He placed 22nd of 44 entries that year after placing third in the world the previous year with a different plane. Links and research to come!

My uncle Frank was a seed sower for aviation, I heard of stories of many people who became drawn into aviation because of his work, boys that were able to pass many entretaining hours building aircraft from his kits and plans. I was one of those kids that was bitten by the aviation bug thanks to him. When I was growing up my uncles lived in California and they would come to Guatemala every two years more or less and I remember him bringing me his famous X-12 X-18 rubber powered F/F airplanes as well as the G-12 and G-24 Gliders, I felt as an engineer building them and the cherry on the pie was to see them fly, I remember building each of them one at a time and trying to fix it until they were not flyable any more and until I made sure I could not fix it, I would go and get another brand new kit to built. Fond memories, I heard a story of some austronaut who started building F/F aircraft when they were kids and that marked their life in such a way that they descided to get into aeronautics and eventually they were involved in the Apollo XI protgram and eventually landed on the moon. They send him a letter thanking him for that. I wish I could read that letter. Thanks again Uncle Frank for all you have given us.
