It's amazing how much money people are prepared to spend on hobbies and recreational activities.

The good thing about the model aircraft hobby is that there is no correlation between the amount of money you spend and much fun you can have. During my "career" as a model aircrafter I have "been there, done that" with one exception, I haven't not yet invested in a turbine.

Thinking back I realize I have had as much fun building and flying indoor peanut scale models as I have had when flying giant scale aerobatic aircraft. The cost of a peanut scale model is a small fraction of a giant scale aerobat, but the fun factor is the same.

Also, keep in mind that the skill of the modeller is not measured in the amount of money spent.
