You look pretty sharp in that green jumpsuit, Session 5... :love:
 
I cant tell you John how exhilarating it is every flight!! I wanted to do this hobby ever since I was a kid, and now I have been doing it for all these years. The sound that comes from those engines and the smell of the nitro, like you say its a BLAST!!!!!!!!!
The smell of nitro..........
Now were talking, this would be a "Contact High" ;)

Working on getting my gear up to speed for this coming season. Making sure bolts and screws are tight . Making sure all controls are functioning properly , Radio and transmitter gear is in proper working order etc etc. Will take me through until April to complete these tasks, then I will be ready to get airborne!! As many of you know this is my #1 Passion.View attachment 37028View attachment 37029

This is my award winner De Havilland Super Chipmunk Scale , I built this in record time for me , had it completed in 6 short weeks. I had built this when working, I would come home have supper and get right to it. Worked 6 hrs per night Monday - Friday then Saturday and Sundays 14 hours both days. Most time guys would spend 6 months to a year to complete a project like this. Well I sent off a picture to one of the Model magazines and they sent me a reply back. It was Published in one of the most read publications of radio control aircraft. I was ecstatic to say the least.scan0001.jpg
