DaFatha.. Amen, you said that perfectly... So how long before a turbine upgrade for the hawk ? Make me really happy and put out an ARF F-86.. Please
Also another side note, when did building become so important, you don't see real F-18 pilots building there own F-18's. I know thats a little far fetched, but from my own experience most guys at my field that fly good don't like to build that much, and most guys that are great at building don't fly that good, now I know that there are some who can do both well, but I think its almost 2 different hobbies. Don't get me wrong, pilots should definitely know how to maintain their planes, but building isn't exactly required to be a great pilot.
just my penny worth.
