Wow, that really is freaky because it's close to my story. My dad and I had been into just about everything RC but planes, including a lot of free flight and control line flying too. While my dad was battling cancer he bought a Tower Trainer 40 combo and was going to learn to fly. Unfortunately he passed away before he got the chance to start flying. I brought the plane home with me and set out to learn to fly. Partly for myself, but mostly for Dad. Even now I always take a moment at the field everyday that I'm flying to say hi to dad, because I know he's there watching me when I fly. I've been flying for 9 years and I still have that trainer. I'll never get rid of it because it was my dad's, and I still take it out and fly it too.
