“It’s just a great exercise for the mind. Both building and flying model aircraft require focus and critical thinking and problem solving as well as patience. Which are very important skills to have for anything life throws at you. If it’s less approachable, people won’t have the learning experiences that can be useful for everyday life. Designing aircraft is fun to do. Not everyone can fulfill their dream of being an aerospace engineer. Building and flying model aircraft is the next best thing. The hobby is expensive as is. There isn’t a need for a higher cost.”
