Title: Need pictures of kids flying Please post some here.
Post by: Paul Taylor on April 23, 2010, 10:19:47 AM

I have an idea.
I want to approach some of the Park & Recreation people about getting an area to fly without competing for space with soccer moms, baseball moms, and football dads. I will direct this people to my little web site with lots of photos of kids flying model control line planes.
So if you have a few photos can you please post them here for me to download.
Or you can email them to me.
Thanks!

My two sons both flew some: R/C gliders in one case, and 1/2-A C/L in the other. Unfortunately, that was back in the dark ages before digital cameras, and it was a hassle to bring out the big SLR and 35mm film- then wait days for film processing.  So, I just don't have any pictures.

Here's my daughter Kayla on a cold morning at the turf growing fields near where we used to live. The 2nd photo is 2 of Australia's best F2D combat fliers who are going to the world champs this year.

Here are a couple photos of my boys when they used to come with me to the flying field.  Now they're "to cool" to be seen with Dad at the flying field.  Hopefully I'll live long enough that I'll once again be tolerable to hang around with, ha!

When my boys got a little older they started flying 35 size planes.  I found the Hangar 9 PT-19 was a perfect plane for them to learn on.

Hope this helps.
