Default First Flight

I just wanted to thank everyone for the advise about using an instructor. I found a very helpful gentleman at the field today who was more than willing tio help me out. It's a good thing he was there to help. I couldn't believe how touchy the radio was. He had to save me numerous times. We were able to get two good flights in. After a few minor adjustments to the throws and my Avistar flew like a champ. If anyone attemps this hobby w/out an instructor, they would have to be crazy or made of $. I would have crashed right off the bat. I thought I was hooked just watching people fly, but now it is like an addiction. I can't wait until next weekend. Hopefully things start to dry up around here and we can get out there again. I'll stop babbling now, I just wanted to thank everyone for there input and advice. It was all greatly appreciated.
Thanks again,
Shane
