We all have limitations in what time we have to spend doing things we enjoy. The point here is that no one has unlimited time to do nothing..even when your retired. The younger flyers have a chance to learn so very much and not all old guys have been flying forever. Take what you can learn..use it to strenghten not only your own abilities but also the sport. If you fly you need to know how to build...ARF or not, there will be a point in time when you will need to repair or rebuild and you may not have the funds to shell out to buy new.
