I am 54 years old, (even though I only look 20).
Been flying Jets/DF since 1978 and designed my 1st model (control line) when i was 8 yrs old.[X(] (find it hard to believe myself when I think about it!)
Love the hobby, love the people in it, and love Jets.
Jets, women and beer what could be better?

I had my 75th in June. I fly anything from Cubs to jets ( Boomerang Intro) and hope to test fly my scratch built F-94C in a few months. I started R/C in 1952.

You know there is something invigorating about screaming by at warp speed and being able to climb straight up to way over AMA legal altitudes ... fun fun fun

Can't believe the wrinklies are still ahead... I recon it cos all us young 30-39 year olds are too busy to post on the poll because we are out at work paying for the wrinklies pensions!

What is the average age of R/C jet pilots? Do jet flyers tend to be younger? Or do "OF's" fly jets also? Submit your vote and let's see!
Easy answer.... It depends on the topic of conversation[sm=bananahead.gif]
