My wife who accompanied us most of the time to the field, never commented on plane flying. However, 3-4months into heli flying, she said "I did not notice before but the planes are so slow". That is what she said and she did not mean forward speed.

I think the initial topic was mislabeled. It drew in more heli crowd than norm causing shift in statistic. It is finally below 60% and if more participated, I think it will go where I anticipated.

I dunno about closet heli pilots, I was more like a closet airplane pilot. I've been flying heli's for about 7 years and only in the last two years did I really start flying airplanes.... It kinda worked out good, cuz I was no stranger to using that left stick  |

I just bought a TRex 450SE, 401, HS-65s, S9650, Hyperion Blades, DX7, etc... a couple friends gave me some stick time and I got hooked! I flew Heli's for a couple years (Raptor 50), then switched back to planes and started flying IMAC... looks like I've come full circle! Currently have: 41% Extra 35% Panzl 35% Extra Mojo .40 Assorted Foamies Trex450SE!!!!!!!!!! Look forward to taking the TRex with me on the road!!! Not a PITA like the GS planes to carry around! |
