RE: Do you consider checkbook modellers to be second class citizens?
Because a checkbook modeler is someone who cannot properly fly his aircraft and buys large and or fast aircraft he cannot fly. People keep equating that with typical modelers who buy ARF's.
A checkbook modeler should be discriminated against because he is dangerous! He should be required to get some buddy box time, or additional time on smaller, easier models; before flying fast or large aircraft.
