Welcome MyDartSwinger, as you may be able to tell by my screen name I too am a classic car guy. I also happen to work right acroos the street from you at Pope AFB and live down the road in Raeford. So I to have had some of those nasty leaves of absence from the hobby due to my job. I also happen to be an instructor at Davis Bridge Aeromodeler's Club near Raeford. I do not know what end of town you live on so of course I do not know which club your looking at. If you want our club presidents phone number just let me know and I will send it to you via PM. I'm not positive but I think the information on the AMA website may be out of date as the gentleman listed as our contact person is on one of those extended vacations from the hobby we were talking about earlier. In fact I'm on a short one right now in Montgomery, Al but will be back July 11. Good luck with the plane and deffinately get with an instructor to at least look it over for you. Those things are advertized and sold as "RTF" but that does not mean you don't have some work to do before you fly them. "HUAA!"
