Lonestar Balsa back in business

[georgegassaway]

Saw the news of this on an R/C sailplane group.

Lonestar Balsa is back in business. They had a fire in November 2007 that destroyed everything.

A lot of rocketeers used to use them as a source for balsa for rockets and gliders before the fire, so this is why I am posting the news here.

Great News!!!

I have an idea for a rocket that will require contest balsa, and of course I thought of Lone Star. Now here's the freaky part...TODAY I asked my neighbor where he buys his balsa since Lone Star is out-of-business (he builds old-time stunt C/L models and is a building machine). He said he uses Midwest & Sig these days but sure misses Lone Star.

I'm going next door in a few minutes and give him the news.

Thanks for the post,George!

Thanks for the heads-up, George.

I used to buy my contest balsa from them when I was more active in Free Flight modeling.

Saved the link and I'm good to go!
