ORIGINAL: Airplanes400

I think newbies should be told that the minimum investment for this hobby is $2,500
I also think $2,500 should be / is accurate. Possibly more when it comes to airplanes.
This will help keep the riff-raff out of the hobby.
Interesting.

ThunderbirdJunkie will have far less than that into his P51 when it's finished.

Care to elaborate on your reasoning? Do you honestly think there isn't riffraff that can afford to drop $2,500 on a plane?
