Look at those rubber bands on the flight line! Every week I come out there are rubber bands on the flight line and in the pits. Next meeting I'm going to raise cain about these rubber bands. Somebody BETTER do something about these rubber bands. All somebody would have to do is bring a rake and it could be clean and neat in 15 minutes. Why doesn't somebody bring a rake? It's so simple, bring a rake and 15 minutes later the pits are clean! Let's have a meeting and get somebody to rake! Why doesn't somebody take some pride and rake the pits? I'm tired of looking at the mess!

That one some one else will have to add. I wouldn't feel right about adding it.

Added to the Giant Jargon Page http://www.flyinggiants.com/giantjargon/index.php

We have had the new Giant Jargon page up for a while. How does everyone like it?

Also I need videos to go with some of the different terms in the dictionaries. I loved the link by Flyinfool, but I need original video that is either on this site or not yet published. Photos to go with the terms are needed also.

With the help of our members I believe that this is going to be one of the most complete and informative dictionaries on the web for RC flying.

I finally had time to work on the Jargon tonight and got these terms added. To those that have submitted terms, sorry it took a while to get them added. When terms are submitted I keep them in a list until I get the chance to add them to the list. With my work schedule sometimes it takes a while to get them added.

I want to thank everyone again for the submissions. The Giant Jargon wouldn't be what it is now without everyone that has contributed. I like to believe that the on-line dictionary here on the Giants is one of the best on the net pertaining to RC aircraft.
