Hahaha! This is a great thread. Funny, but a whole lot of truth to it!

GLAD I'M NOT A GUY!

I'm just going to be the CHICK that shows up, flies her husband's well-maintained machines, hangs out to have fun and invites you over to the RV at the end of the day for a home-cooked meal and a frosty beverage.

See you guys at some rallies soon. ;-)

Perhaps an additional category is needed for those of us who burn kero just to have fun. We freely talk about our hobby with anyone with an interest, and will help a fellow flyer retrieve his plane from a tree, ditch, hole, and sometimes from two feet of water. We are not in the hobby to impress anyone, but simply to divert our attention from the stresses of the work week and hang out with people who share a similar fondness for model jets.[8D]

So you are part of the 75% cool guys... No need for a new category...

I'm trying to decide. Either I'm "All the above Guy" or "None of the Above Guy" ! Depends on who you ask, but I'm always the drunk guy with the big Pork Chop!

Im a combination of the "outcast guy" and "cool guy" i guess.

I never get to make it to any rallies bc of work (stupid seasonal job!) so most all of my jet buddies are people i speak to on RCU the most.

Mainly hangs out online, thank goodness :-)

Is ''Outcast Guy'' forever outcast or will they eventually be accepted by the community and have a chance at ''Cool Guy?''

Also, where does a female jet pilot that is pretty darn good fall in the list? Might piss some people off, especially if she didn't start with a ''trainer jet'' either...LOL.

This outa be entertaining...my adventure into the RC turbine world is just beginning.

Come on Al, you know women don't fly...oh yeh, both of our wives do..!

F me. Thanks for a good 'ol gut laugh. I haven't laughed this hard since i saw a "looser" compilation on American Idol.

So which is the "hey, can you land my jet for me? ....guy" He's got enough money (barely)to buy and build some nice jets and spends his day at the field trying to talk other pilots into taking them up for a test flight. When he does finally decide to fly one, he's so damn far in over his head that he has to get someone else to land it.

How about the

Just wanna have fun guy: Loves the smell of burning kero. Gets an adrenaline rush with a smooth landing or a fast pass. Loves the techgnology and likes hanging out with a bunch of interesting cool guys that are just as crazy as he is. He could care less about egos, intellectual jousting or all the other BS associated with a lot of the types above. He just wants to play with some cool toys [img][/img]
thats the guy!

Hmm, the fact that the OP made this thread about rc jet pilots instead of rc pilots definitely eliminates him from the cool guy category.
