lol..it makes me laugh everytime someone calls this a "Sport". It is playing with toys,lol..
He also mentions the term hobby, recreation and whatever you wish to call it. I do normally call it "toy airplanes", yet I also consider model aviation a serious SPORT.[sm=pirate.gif]
Those that devote their efforts to competition are as dedicated as any amateur sports person. Regular fun-flying can be as demanding as the local softball games which are considered 'sports'.
To each his own, to me model aviation is a SPORT.
