Amazing what we had access to back in the 50's thru 70's now kids sit in front of a monitor and play KILLING games. Some kids do figure it out that it's much more fun to participate then vegetate. Example Trevor a 13 year old man from Canada started flying A Foam T-28 Teo years ago while on Christmas vacation in Apache Junction AZ. Now flying %%cc gas and .60 Glow P-51. with real skill. Anyway when he started I mentioned to his mother and father that he had about 3 years before he found girls and cars. Well this Fall he showed up for a couple of weeks of flying and his statement to me was Mike U were right them girls wont leave me alone.
No wonder he'd a good looking talented 6'4" Blond young man. Who flies better than this OLD 70 year old. Gett'm girls.
