Piggy - ex lawyer, now running a small advertising agency and also am a concert promoter. Its all about hard work and NO chicks! Never mix work and pleasure. As for planes, most of mine are all new and sitting in the hobby room, only flying my Extreme Flight Extra 300 and GWS Slow Stick for last few weeks. Need to start movnig on some big EP projects. Anyways, the net is fun, you meet people from all over ... its 1:40 om now and at 4:00 pm I will be picking up an Argentinian guy who I met in RCU and he is now in Malaysia with his family, he is here to work, will be taking him to the flying field and meet the guys. Then its off for SUPERB ASIAN CUISINE!!! Wanna see pics?

Instead of pics, I'd rather you send some BBQ ribs this way....! I've never tried Malaysian food, what is your reccomendation to try? What do you mean by big EP projects?

Thanks guys , I got good chicki at home , the only babe I better be looking and dreaming about better be on the side of a plane lol

I am super luckey , my wife knows what I like in Rc , and its shows up on Birthdays and xmas ect or just special occasions !!!

Back to biz of this post , mnay people comment on the evolution of ARfs , as matter of fun I had a good post going about the transition actually started from crapy arfs to the quality that is around today .
Because of my travles I get into a ton of shops , on one of my trips to southren Cal I visted Hobby people when they were hobby shack , they were one the first to roll out a ton of ARf warbirds .

Usally there covering ect was so far off base but the planes were not bad so I asked why dont you keep the arc version around , like the Modletech P51 ??
They said , your not going to belive but some people dont even want to cover a plane , no matter how good we have built it .
I was actullay amazed , I have a modeltech P51 ARC , new in box , the plane has thick airfoils , scale counter balances in the tail is a work of art as far as qulaity wood , glue and overall build . Much better then the H9 and world models version of the P51 .

So its amazing how arfs have developed and the evolution in the retailers mind of what will sell and what will not sell

LDM - no ARF manufacturers here, only Flight Power packing facility ... Thailand has got CB Hobbies, Comp ARF, Extreme Comp and a few more. However, we do not have any here.

Happy Birthday LDM!!!
