When I returned to the Mini-Dome about 2 weeks after the USIC, ETSU
employees Elmer Bryant and Mike Rhea had saved for us 2.5 std cat
gliders from when the scoreboard bottom was reattached.

One belonged to Chuck Markos, but had an address stamp, weight, and date
marked. I have already emailed Chuck.

The others need identification. Do they belong to you or do you know
their owners? The second one is intact except the vertical fin has been
knocked off but was also recovered.

The third one is missing the fuselage behind the wing and the tail. The
wing is 6-panel and appears to have a tiny bolt through the wing maybe
for incidence adjustment.

I'll attach two photos.

No other planes were recovered.

Interestingly, the banners have not yet (as of Tuesday) been re-hung.
