I'm 13 years old. I right now am practicing 3D and hoping to compete in the future. I love warbirds, I was actually named after the P-40 Warhawks's Allisonv12 engines, so gotta love warbirds. I also am intrested in flying Full scale someday. I do enjoy RC w/ my dad too (andrew wisc. on here) . And I'm also the only girl at my field and I'm proud of it

I was thinking the same thing. Some of ya'll have it made. Born with a silver spoon in your mouth.( i dont mean to offfend anyone) I know ya'll can't get a job because of your age, but man I have job and I can't afford that stuff. If I did, I'd have an Ultimate Bipe with a DA-100. I'd like to know what do your parents do and do they fly. If they fly, they know the addiction and want you to have it too

I'm 18, been flyin for one year. I'm the youngest in my club and the rest of the members are old enough to be my granparents. I have 2 planes that are flyin right now. a balsa usa stick 40( its older than most all of ya'll 18yrs old) I have a 3d foamy and I have a room full of planes included is a spad debonair and a taurus plus pattern ship ( older than some of ya'll parents , about 35 yrs old!!!) and a tiger 2. Some of my planes where given to me,so I feel if a noobs walks up to me and want a plane. I will give it to them. I will keep the engine and radio gear, but its yours.( I need the space anyhow). I had to take out my weight bench and put it in the barn and use it there, cause my room was getting very crowded.

Well, my moms a Unit clerk for Mercy hospital and part-time EMT and my dads a gear mechanic. And yes my dad does fly with me and heck, we both have been addicted for quite some time. Yeah, sure I wish I could have some of the nicer planes but, the planes I'm flying right now (Sig 4*, VQ Mig 3, Mayhem, Citabria, and Aeronca Defender) are good enough for me. You don't need those big expensive planes to have fun flying. IMO Flying is about having fun, not who has the bigger or most expensive plane.

Yes thats correct[8D]. You don't have to have a big expensive plane to have fun and joy your flying buddies[8D]. All I'm saying that it would be nice to be able to afford the better stuff thats all. If you have an old junk truck like me, sure it will get ya where ya wanta go but ya still would like a big chevy with big muddin tires

thats exactly right fly boy 2. the joy of flying is all that matters, no matter what you fly ya it would be nice to get a new plane or heli, but its kinda fun to work with what you got. and i like building my own stuff [8D] esspecially when they fly great... though buying new electronics is a different story (the stuff is big $$$) [:@]
