Tim and Dan,

I wish to thank you guys for your input and honest opinons. Particularly you Tim. Being a rep for TF and warning a potential buyer of what to be aware of, possibly looseing a sale in the process, speaks volumes.

With that being said, maybe more explanation is in order. I have been flying and "assembleing" ARF's for many years. I have been involved in the hobby for approx. 30yrs. though only full time for about 10yrs. I pride myself on setting up my arf's right the first time. If I take a bird to the field for a maiden flight, and everything does not work perfect, or with only minor tweeks, I am very embaresed and upset with myself. In fact makeing the details perfect is half the fun in arf's, flying is the other half.

I read with interest your posts about your co-workers putting bomb bays in their B-25's, this is something I thought would be fun to try.

When I call myself an intermediate pilot, I mean I am not an expert. I can not wring out a 3D plane like some of the guys at my field. I can however do good realistic areobatics with my GP super stearman running a 2.4cc gasser. Or my 120 size 4-star, also with same size gasser. Or GP Pitts special 50cc, though I have ground looped that a couple of times, so short coupled ya know.

I could go on, but I won't. Suffice to say, I think there are 3 classification of flyers. Beginers, Intermediate, and Expert.
Maybe that leaves to much room for guessing. Thanks again for your honest input, and I am in no way offended by your reply.

Craig
