At my local flying feild there are about ten guys there that frown on guys who scractch build or design planes themselves. Out of the whole club I am the only one who scratches planes out there and only two guys who kit build. Generly speeking guys who used to kit build and crash those planes rebuy an arf to replace it. This summer I finally got one of my designs out to the feild after it being on the board for two years only to get laughed at for my efforts. To bad it is the only feild within driveing distance. So i laugh back and feel sorry for them becuse of all the fun I am having.
