“I have been loved airplanes since I was a child.  Participated in control-line modeling when I was an adolescent.  When RC started taking hold, I was busy with work and a young family, so did not get into that until about 15 years ago.  It has been so rewarding.  I’ve built lasting friendships and have a grandson that is entering the hobby.  Everyone that I have met that is associated with this hobby have been the most courteous and patriotic people around.”
