170 cowling you can eat

The big 80 last weekend, neighbor built this cake that replicates the cowling on our B model we have owned for 47 years. Nice tasting 170. We also had 11 others celebrating December birthdays at the air park Birthday-Rama.

Thanks George. The spinner was from a neighbors 1/4 scale (I think) R/C.

Yep, just a number, but makes me a flying octogenarian. Didn’t think I would ever make this. Thank you and all for the birthday greetings.
