RE: Why is CL losing popularity?
I started in this hobby 55 years ago with control line aircraft. I learned to build and fly. I now RC pylon race. I still build and fly. I have not forgotten my roots.
The last time the US hosted the C/L World Camps was over twenty years ago at Chicopee, Mass. I was Team manager for the Canadian team at that event. I WILL be at Muncie this year. I would not miss the C/L world championships. Anybody who calls this activity dull is out of touch with reality. The numbers alone will tell the tale. I am sure there will be more competitors/spectators at Muncie this year for this event than for any other single discipline event.
