1: Not being able to stop buying planes is never a sickness, buying crappy planes is.
2: If that is everything you have, you havent had the sickness for long enough I count 6 airplanes in that pic; I have 17 or so wedged into my condo and another 10-15 at my parents place in Houston.

LONG LIVE AIRPLANE DISEASE!

Hi Rob
Your wife proud of you buying airplanes!!!! That is not normal, most of us are always trying to hide the planes from the wives.
You have a sickness, that we share.
You can't stop buying planes, that sounds like me.

Wow you have so many planes, why don't you post a picture, 17 airplanes wedged in a condo, that would win you the November pic of the month, as a bonus why don't you also take a picture of the 10 to 15 airplanes at your parents house, very interesting, anybody else with that many planes?
By the way RobC, nice decoration, I count 7 airplanes.

You need to move that ironing board out and replace that window with a set of double doors so you can move the big one's in and out.... then it'll be perfect.

Yes on the double doors, but the ironing board is a perfect place to install servo's in your wings so you don't damage the covering

Default Re: My plane themed re-model for my spare bedroom

I have a 5 car garage that hasn't had a car in it for about 4 years. There are planes hanging on the walls, sitting on the floor, Hanging from the cieliing, on ( and under) the work benches. At last count I think I have 27 planes. I finally came to the conclusion that in order to become a better pilot I need to fly one plane & let the rest of them go. Naaaah, what was I thinking? Look at all the new stuff that is coming out.

Wanna know the really sick part? The vast majority of them are 1/4 scale or larger. At last count I owned 8 gas engines. All of the planes are servo'd up & have the batteries & recievers in them but I do have to swap engines around some.

I have a solution to this problem. Give some of your planes to people, like me, who don't have enough money to feed thier hunger for planes! I only have one funtana, which as been repaired more times than I can remember, and a foamy. I also have an old trainer which I haven't flown in years. I am however planning on getting my first gasser once I get past the holiday season.
