Hi all. I am here with hat in hand looking for some stuff to help outfit a very nice young man here in Westlock, AB. He is ten years old and is an only son to a mother that can no longer work due to a spinal injury. He helps her out a great deal around the house and has had to grow up a little too fast.
I would give him what I have, but have already dispersed it all to other youth a few years ago! I too am on a fixed income and can't really afford to buy the stuff he needs, so I am asking you all for any help that you can give. As you can imagine, he will need everything but paint, fuel, nuts, bolts, screws and a handle. I will supply that stuff as required.
I am hopeing that I can set him up with a .15 size plane, as they are just far easier to fly, and with my knees I just can't turn that fast anymore! LOL Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. If you don't wish to be identified as a contributor, please just email me at gtreach at hotmail dot com, or IM me on this forum. Thanks everyone.
One of the fellows on another forum asked that I send him the young mans address so he could send him some stuff. This raised a good point. Although I would much prefer that the stuff go directly to him (it would be like xmas!), I can't give out any identifying info on him. I can not give his address, name, or post pics of him. Our child protection laws are quite strict that way. I am sorry, cause it takes some of the fun out of it. The best I can do is get him to post in the forums on the build. I am sorry, but its the law and sometime it sucks!
