Thank you Bob, but I am just a person who wants to suceed in something I am doing. I don't give up easily and am considered a hard head...

To some building a kit is no big deal because they have either done so many that they are bored with them or they don't know how/don't feel they can do it. When I finish this kit and it maidens I will have accomplished something that I never thought I could do and it will show in my attitude. It will allow me to move on to better, more involved kits and it will allow me to pass on what I have learned and help someone else.
There is a flyer at our field that looks down his nose at ARFs although he flys them. I think it comes from building most of his life and working to be able to fly. I can understand his feelings about ARFs. When I told him that I had bought a kit he said that "its one thing to buy a kit but another to build it". If I have to stand on my head, I will finish this kit

To those who have passed on what they have learned I applaud you in your efforts to assist fellow flyers and future builders. To those of you who have been doing this for 40 or 50 years, think what the future may hold for the RC pilots of tomorrow...I can only imagine.
Bob
