my start
« on: May 14, 2014, 07:36:11 PM »
my start is because of my dad was around 3 back in the 60s anyway to see that airplane in the field was very cool when my dad started it the noise terrified me but when that plane took flight i was hooked some time after that my dad got me a stuntman 23 and a baby bee engine a few scarry flights at first then figured it out next plane was a scientific mustang  and a big otto all half a planes then he got me a ringmaster and an enya 29 im definitely hooked have built many ringmasters and am finally building a ringmaster imperial have been flying a sterling skylark and a arf oriental also have a arf nobler and a gieseke nobler a sig twister a sig chipmonk  and many more  something about the way it makes you feel when the engine is fueled up and your putting the battery leads on the engine in fact when i hear that engine come to life i start to shake from the adrenalin , still get that every time the first flight and as soon as I land its like a calm comes over me its an awsome feeling to fly control line and I got started because of my dad
