The Control Line Combat Museum A museum for the privileged few that have a clue what control line combat is. A collection of combat planes from 1949 to current. Enjoy! Bob Mears

Most are painted as on box, and correct motors as shown on plans. This will be an ongoing update to pictures as I get time to get them added. Many combat ships were donated by many combat pilots. Most were built by myself (Bob Mears), Andy Mears, James Mears, Wayne Welch, and several others that will be mentioned per model. We have all of the MACA newsletters, several Model aviation magazines that pertain to combat, Lots of plans, several kits, a large combat engine collection, T shirts from many events, prop displays, fuel system displays, and about anything I can find showing control line interest. BTW, many control line plans are displayed on my page of "Controllineplans". They are free to download and print. This museum is free for anyone to wants to see it. Normally we try to have a combat event on Labor Day weekend and have a small party in the museum on that Saturday night. I welcome one and all to have a look at this collection. It's the only one in the world like it and designated to control line combat pilots from all over the world. We're a small bunch and I think it's great to have our sport brought to light for one and all.

Andy and I built lots and lots of these when we were little kids. Along with Riley’s kids, Trish, Mike and Steve Wooten. It took me 5 years to finally get all three. I copied the kits so the kits would stay complete.
