Default FG Staff Welcomes Mick Dakers!

Dear FlyingGiants Crew,

As you all know, the Aussie Contingent are prolific FlyingGiants supporters and are an unbelievable group of guys who are nuts about the hobby. Since day one, they have been an integral part of our community vibe, and we're stoked that they call this place home.

When they are not operating under the radar in a massive thread known as "Giants from Down Under" (15,000 posts, 400k views), the AUS enjoy all the laughs, fun, and great information that we try our best to bring to the modeling world. And in case you haven't noticed, they are hundreds of members strong.

With that, we are stoked to introduce the first addition to out international Staff - Mick Dakers, AKA rcdart. Mick brings to the hobby alot of bling and experience in the world of bigger birds, and a strong... Wait.. actually insane obsession with IMAC. And on a personal note, he's one of the DU boys that spent a week with us in Tucson with last year, and is a top notch cat who gets the way we run things.

Now that we've made the appropriate introductions, let the hazing begin! Please feel free to photochop the picture below and show. Let 'em have it boys!

Welcome Micko!

~FG Staff
