Hi Don,                 Sad news about Tem Johnson, he was a very nice man and a very good modeler.  I know he enjoyed indoor gliders and was very good at the sport.One time at JC, he gave me some very interesting and valuable history about the sport of indoor gliders, specifically hand launch gliders.  The one thing he told both my boy and I about hand launch gliders (javelin) is that it is "All in the footwork" and even sent us an article explaining the proper footwork.    I believe I have not seen him since the NATS in 2011 at JC, but before 2011 he was always there.                    Thanks for passing the information on.Kurt

Don: One of our members (Tem Johnson) passed on last week Thursday. I
wrote this brief section for his obit. (his brother asked me)....

Tem's Bronco was published in the 1961 Zaic Year book I think.

*Subject:* Tem Johnson info from Model Airplane Club perspective

Tem Johnson was an excellent model airplane craftsman and railroad
enthusiast. He was a local active member of the Topeka Model Aircraft
Club and Heart of America Free Flight Model Airplane Club for decades
within the KC area. Tem was a fixture at many model airplane contests,
on the local and national levels. Tem competed and won against some of
the worlds best free flight modelers frequently at the yearly national
contests in Idaho and Tennessee over the years. Tem had a mechanical
engineering background and had attended Purdue. He always took an
organized scientific approach to model construction as well as the art
of flying competitively. Many of his designs and aerodynamic related
technical articles were published in technical journals and news
letters. Tem had and encyclopedic knowledge of model airplanes and
lectured on many flying and design topics. He will be deeply missed by
the local model airplane community.
