Nick Nicholson here. A year ago our club, Fountain City Fliers in Prattville, Al, put on a 3D event. I was hooked. Went home and ordered a PAU airplane and a DA 60 and got ready to learn something new. Unfortunatly a bout w/cancer has set me way back. The tumor is now gone and the cancer is in remission and just as soon as I get some strength back I'm gonna get at it. Airplane has been flown 3 times and performs well. Been flying RC since the early '70s and was surprised at how easy this airplane is to fly. I am 69 yrs old and am looking forward to meeting ya'll when opportunities present. God bless - Nick

Awesome first post, glad to see ya flying again!
