Hi Bob. I don't know if you remember Johhny Cashburn. He made some of the first sorta prebuilt plane kits you could buy back in the 1980s and before. His shop was about 2 miles from my house. I bought my first radio, a Kraft KP-4A from him. He always made the point that little airplanes flit. Big airplanes fly..

While I doubt I will ever have a really large airplane again I don't think I will ever have one of those little bird sized models some fly at the field.

One thing I have noticed about the guys that fly the very large IMAC planes is that everyone of them are excellent pilots. I feel safer with them in the air than some of the guys with the super small planes that just seem to buzz around over the end of the runway.
