Good advice here...as usual. RCU aside from an instructor is THE best place to get info, on all subjects related to these planes we love. AND you can get a consensus on a product or tip or flying technique which you can't get by talking to just one person. GOOD stuff!

Now, what you need to do is get yourself on down to the nearest flying site and get to know the folks who are there. From those meetings you will be able to find an instructor who can, and will love to get you going. Don't put it off. It's too much fun to put off for another minute. Just do it and you will be glad. At first there is SO much to know, and one hardly knows exactly WHERE to start. Get an instructor...get in the air...and in NO TIME, you will be soloing and having a ton of fun.

GOOD LUCK!
