“I have always loved aviation and started flying RC because it was what I could afford. RC gives me the chance to be a pilot at a cost that is not excessive. RC often becomes the gateway to full scale piloting for many and that was always a dream I never thought could happen. Because of my involvement with RC and a local EAA chapter and becoming friends with so many someone saw my passion about flight and has stepped up to help me make my dream of being a full scale pilot a reality. Without RC I would have never seen this dream come true. Plus the knowledge of RC and flying helps with the basic concepts of a full scale aircraft.”
