Default RE: Years of experience in R/C hobby including operating/flying & building

I spent most of 1952 in a C-54 between Japan and Korea, read in "Air Trails" about the Good Brothers flying an R/C airplane, made up my mind to try it once I got back to the US of A. Fast forwrd to 1953, Moses Lake Washingto, flew my first R/C with all home made and partly own designed equipment. Been at it every since, never had an ARF, profile, Ugly Stik or (Ugh!) foamie. Probably the last of the dinasaurs! Eloy Marez
