I built one as a teenager for freeflight and thought it would make a nice model scaled up for vintage RC flying .

In perusing this New Directory for 1849-50, it will appear manifest that great exertions have been made, to render the work extensively useful, and deserving of Public patronage. In lieu of the Almanac and Tide Table, a Classification of Trades and Professions has been given, which, it is hoped, from its being the first yet offered to the Inhabitants of Greenock, will give general satisfaction.
