I am definately hooked and plan to be in this hobby for sometime...now I doubt i will be able to hit the field every day i would like too...but definatley when conditions and time permits i will be there...have flow twice now and totally love it. And when your instructor asks you if your snowballing them on never flying before....that gives ya a definate boost of enthusiasm and confidence. [ALL those COMPTUER games can pay off : )] I think I will get more ingulfed in the hobby even more the better i get and the more confident I get...I have friends that all say they want to go fly but their trainers collect dust after they have flown a few times and honestly I think i know why...Every show up at the field...NO instructor...INstructor..no buddy box...Instructor..wrong TX...i know some of them have told me that they would get more into it if they didnt run into these problems...I am more patient I guess...have spent most this year overseas...<--In military btw...but I am trying to get to the field as much as I can before i ship out for HOPEFULLY my last trip overseas for awhile. THEN FULL STEAM ahead....

This hobby is great...I have a 9 year old daughter and it is really fun taking her to the field...i even signed her up for AMA ...and she wsn't too interested in R/C planes till this last weekend we went and she saw me flying and now she is wanting a plane!!!! So...instead of a plane...she will be getting some time on the GP flight sim : ) Let's see how long it holds her interest.

This is a great Hobby!!!
