RE: Is Wright engineering still around?
Bob,
A little bit here and there. Its one of those things where you turn a hobby into a business and its never the same again as a hobby. I don't have as much time as I used to either so I mainly tinker with helicopters and the simulator. I'm sure I'll get back into it someday though. Probably when there are some kids around to teach. I have several building boards stashed away for when the time comes.
I'm in the middle of helping a friend build a full size airplane right now. It a Vans Aircraft RV-10. Does that count? I don't remember putting any rivets in an R/C airplane so probably not.
