WOW Moms Mistake, you must be really good.
I've put a lot of hard work, time and PASSION into rc planes. Iread an interviewabout a pro dirtbike racer in a rc magazine about 27 years ago. He was asked, what are a few of your hobbies. He said he liked to go fishing, camping and loved crashing rc planes ( Meaning he couldn't fly'em ), that was the trigger for me. I was always curious at how hard itmusthave beenfor him.

We usually go to the field 4 to6 times a year at the most, some people fly much more. 75 to 80% of the flights I've made are maidens, I rarely fly the same aircraft twice. 4 rc planes is all I have ever owned, 2 never had engines. Most of my flight time is with others planes and me teaching them.

Still have the 1st and only radio I ever bought 23 years ago, a Futaba 4 channel Attack. It'sa great possibility I'll do the maidenwith a 50lbturbo prop Airtractor next year with the 4 channel Attack

TShark is right, I may crash 1 day and if I do, I want lose any sleep over it.


Thanks...
