Default Flight Training

I would like to acknowledge and thank the members of the Marymoor R/C Club that put on and ran the just completed Flight Training at our field in Redmond. Just to name a few, Robert C, Jerry W, Bill, Jack F, Everett D, Wade, Dave E, Admiral, Steve G, Mark, Lana. If I have left you off the list it was not intentional or ment as a dig in any way.
Just to explain a little, every year the club puts on a flight training school for rookies that starts in April and goes till September, every Tuesday night weather permitting.

Now if you think about that span of time, there is an amazing amount of logistics that goes into that and being that I was one of the rookies that showed up in April without really much of a clue what to expect these folks started me on a very rewarding and exciting hobby.

I have no idea how many flights were accomplished over the flight school period of time, but I can personally say that I have about 40 flights and for anyone looking for a great trainer I would reccommend both the Great Planes Real Flight V4 Flight Simulator and the Hanger 9 Alpha 40 RTF Trainer. While I had two incidents with this trainer one which left it destroyed this was an exceptional trainer and Hanger 9 has a great trainer aircraft.

The Marymoor team just did a wonderful job and they have served the R/C community very well and have helped me personally more then anyone namely me could ever expect.

Thank You Marymoor R/C.

Best Wishes,

Eric Benjamin
