The good news is if you want to fly you get to build! What could be better than that?
A lot of people, old timers included, would beg to differ. It's a shame that something as prestigious as classic pattern flying will be restricted to thoses who can either afford the time to build or the money to buy a specialty aircraft. I don't care a lick about 3-D aerobatics. I really wantedt o get more involved with classic pattern.
However, it seems if you have an ARF, 'Your kind ain't welcome here...'
