Hello.
Glad to see you're well and still enjoying the hobby Raymond.
I'm sorry to hear about Dan and Roger.
I drifted away from flying several years ago (moved away from NC), but I miss it. It's all so different now with the open-source, mega-channel, telemetry radios and lack of interest in glow at most clubs. I keep researching new radios, and I can't decide on which one to buy. But, I'm currently spending all of my hobby money building vacuum tube guitar amps these days (the risk of electrocution keeps it exciting).
I still have a few 1/2a engines left. I recently scored a NIB TD .049 for $74 which seemed like a good deal. I wish I hadn't sold my TD .020's. I'm not paying $250 each to replace them.
What I've really been missing is Free Flight. Man, I used to love flying 1/2a nostalgia FF. Although, flying Sure Sharks was always just as fun, especially with the Crew.
