Default RE: A question for us ARF lovers...

I'm glad for ARF's however I'm leaning towards building kits this winter. Some ARF's out there are so horrible with the quality and ease of finishing I'd rather build a kit and be in control of my own quality. So far, Hanger 9 I've been most pleased with, and I would have still would have been in this hobby if there weren't any ARF's out there. I used to build Gullow kits when I was a kid. “Remember the tissue and Dope? lol

I think some of the ARF's has made me lazy in some aspects, but I do like having something to fly when I need to.

Remember folks, when they say an ARF takes only 10 hours to build, it takes me 10 days!

Also when I crash an ARF... it doesn't hurt as bad. When I crash a plane that was a kit, I'm ready for therapy and anti-depressants.
