..... and the old guys left make it all but impossible for the younger generation to get into the hobby. "Usually" not the friendliest bunch to be around ... I am 40 and will still avoid clubs, meetings and related functions all I can .. just don't need to deal with it . My son was getting into RC, until he saw how some people are, and wanted nothing to do with it ... no biggie, as he is now 16 and we are into cars and off-roading together, having lots more fun, with less irritation. Its amazing what RC Jet hobby time & money will get you spent elsewhere ! lol This is a common thread with many who have left the hobby.

I still fly, and have ton of planes / helis that need finished, but just not into it like I used to be :\ . When I do fly, its by myself with only a select few close friends.
