If that is where your love is then by all means follow it. I thougth that is what I wanted to do as well. I started training and I realized that I liked watching planes fly more then I liked being inside of them flying. And since it's hard to see the plane you are piloting I choose not to do it and fly RC instead.

Also, I'd likely be able to own and maintain only one full scale airplane. There's no way I could have an entire hangar full like I do RC stuff. Not only that, I'd likely not have an opportunity to own full scale versions of some of the cool RC planes I have.

I do want to go back and finish training to be a full scale pilot one of these days though.
This is absolutely true. Unless you are John Travolta (who owns many different full scale planes including his own 737) owning a full scale plane is limited to one airplane. With RC I can fly many different planes. I can go out one day with a B-25 bomber, an Extra 300 the next day, and glider the day after that.
