Reginald Denny, his Reginald Denny Hobby Shop and formation of Radioplane[edit]
Hello,
As film and aviation historian, and author of Prince of Drones: The Reginald Denny Story, I noticed a number of historically incorrect items listed in this Wikipedia page about Radioplane and Reginald Denny. Shall I make the factual corrections with my Wikipedia account directlly on the page - or shall I submit the corrections in a different manner? FYI re: one of the statements, the Reginald Denny Hobby Shop did not go out of business two years after formation; it operated at the original location at 5751 Hollywood Blvd. as Reginald Denny Hobby Shop through the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s and into the 1960s, then the Veir Family moved the business to their current location in Alhambra with the corporation name change as California Hobby Distributors, still in operation today.
