The old Man made it in Model Aviation!
The old Man made it in another magazine, July 2010 Model Aviation this time with our British SE5a during the 2009 Dawn Patrol at the WPAF museum. BTW he will be 80 in a few weeks...

Congratulations to your father, and to you too.
I see in the caption that you two built the SE5a from plans, and you equipped it with a vintage air-cooled horizontally opposed engine. I think that goes well in this tech forum.

That's awesome, maybe get a proffesional print of it and have it framed for him, and make one for yourself, that'd be a great celebration of both of your effort.

Was your Dad one of the Dawn Patrol guys they used to write the really funny articles about? Sorry I can't remember the magazine, maybe EAA Sport Plane or the like.
In any event, great stuff.
