Status: offline 		Well I am 14 and actually I have 2 planes, one in flight conditions and the other is in the last stages of construction. and I have a third being designed.
Mostly my granparents pay for the airplanes and my parents for the maintenance costs (fuel, prop, glow plug, etc, etc, etc)....I guess I am lucky

To go to the field, sometimes my dad takes me, sometimes my mom, or any other person around that can drive me there......

Status: offline 		hey guys im 15 and i have been flying since i was like 11 or 12. I have 4 planes that are flight warthy and many others that i coulds fly if i just pull a reciever out of something else and put it in it. my grandpa always took me flying until he moved then i got a friend into the hobby and my mom and his dad do ways to and from the field. but next summer ill be driving so that will help alot. as far as funding goes. ive paid for just about everything except for my graduation present(rtf .60 plane) birthday present( u can do 46)to help the cost is that ive only crahshed one reall plane everything else has just been spads which dont cost much to begin with. as far as getting money i do any job I can since i cant get a real job so i lawn mow, watch neighbors dog, caddy at local country club.
