RE: >Question: Why do you love rc aviation?
I've have always like planes, and built many plastic models when young. When I got hooked on computers, I started to get into the Microsoft Flight Sims big time. One farthers day 6 years ago, my daughter got me an Air Hog battery operated "toy". I then self progressed in the electric park flyer road..learning on my own. Found a local club near by a year later..field is 6 miles from my house, and joined. Soloed after a month with my trainer and progressed quickly with plane types. I flew so much when there, (have slowed a bit) I was given the nick name Gas N Go. Only we know the feeling of flying that plane. It is the most relaxing and intense feeling I get at the same time. You forget all your worldly troubles.until you have an issue that is. ..lol. It is my medicine...you see, I quit drinking a 6 months before joining the club. Been sober ever since..but have this new addiction...but you need something. Needless to say, the only sim in the computer now is Real Flight. I now fly mostly gas(cheaper fuel), and am loving my Aeroworks 85cc Extra 260, my latest fix.
