Default New Old Guy

Hello all

I am returning to the hobby after a 3 year absence. had to deal with a move, a change of jobs, new house and now gas prices. Just can't get ahead.

I fly both planes and helo's. Not good at either right now but it's coming back.

I had ten years in the hobby prior to taking a break. I build 90% of my planes from kits or scratch. I've even custom built for several 3d pilots. Mostly 35 and 40 percent Cardens. I'm a much better builder than I am a flyer.

Current Hanger (Helo)

Rapter 50
Rapter 60
Fury Expert 60

Currenty Hanger (airplane)

Arista
Regal Eagle DF

Hope everyone is have a great fathers day

Flying (if thats what you want to call it) In Orange Texas, which is located about 5 miles form the louisana/texas state line.

I could stand a few less challenges in my live. It would have been better to be born rich instead of so damm good looking.
