RE: IS That an ARF ?
I guess some people read far too much into casual comments.
I'd be more concerned with the person doing the asking. If you know them, they proabably know you and your niche in the hobby. If a stranger, they may simply be curious. Either way, your plane is getting the notice...what could be wrong with that?
(Besides, all ARF's look alike...unless you bash 'em)
