Default RE: Why do you love jets?


ORIGINAL: RCB757

I do not fly RC jets.......However I have a question that has been bugging me for a while now. In this politically correct world I should just keep this to myself however I mean no malice.
I have been in Model Aviation very actively for the last 40 plus years. I have attended a few RC jet events. I always notice that the majority of guys that are involved in RC jets are black. It is not that way with any other segment of this hobby.
Once again, I would be asking this same question if the majority had red hair! Or if the majority all walked with a limp! It is just with my (limited?) exposure to RC jet events, most of the pilots are black. Has anyone else noticed that?
By the way.....The jets are really cool, and so are all of the pilots! (no matter what color they are)
I know what you mean. I went to a jet rally in Guadalajara and it was full of Mexicans!!
