Why Fly?

Birds, Insects, and Superman do it too.


"Relaxing"

It comes down to enjoyment and peace when I fly. Just imagine what it would be like to see through a bird's eye when it passes over this beautiful landscape. Or feel the warm air lifting you hundreds of feet off the ground. I fly my radio control planes as an extension of myself...

"Exhilaration"

Tight turns, loops, and rolls keeps my blood pumping. My radio control jet pulses through the air at what seems Mach 2. The sound of the turbine motor chewing air molecules makes me grit my teeth as I fly inverted ten feet above the deck. I fly radio control planes to laugh at danger....

"Challenge"

Combining perfection and precision with the chance to become a national contestant. I don't want loops and rolls. There's more like to flying than zipping through the air. I need the accuracy of a DLG spot-landing, an hour of thermal soaring with a tuned glider, and the hovering power of a 3D plane doing slow harriers two feet off the deck. I fly radio control planes to compete...

"Social"

Friends, Food, Fun! What's better than getting together with others? Flying with others. I want to enjoy, talk, fly, eat, and stay comfortable all afternoon. I fly radio control planes just because.
