Sup Y'all!
I'm so excited to hang out with you kids at TEMAC! I think I need to pay the piper for 2019...
I've always loved flight! One of my earliest memories is playing with a die cast 747, which "flew" many times, followed by my mother yelling at me for throwing toys across the living room... I was always reading books about jets and flight and model magazines! I'd spend hours in the library dreaming about being a pilot.
I didn't have access to true hobby parts or planes while growing up, so I started trying to build my own model fixed wing and helis, with house hold items (read as the family VCR and printer for motors and gears...
) While these never truly flew I loved the hobby!
Then in 2008/9 I found the amazing site DealExtreme! I bought my first fixed pitch heli to fly in the house! Exciting! It didn't work... The receiver didn't work. Regardless over the year I bought many cheap heli's to fly (and wreck) in the basement, but I knew I wanted to fly fixed wing in the great outdoors!
Fast forward through University, starting my career and getting married, I bought my first fixed wing from ali express, a 10" 3ch 1s cub. It was awesome! Till the winds picked up and I realised I should check out what the rules were around this hobby...
Then I found TEMAC! I showed up to a pilots meeting and the next day I went to Pinnacle to buy my Apprentice! In a short time Bruce and Team had me flying safely and with Wings!
While work always seems to get in the way, I really love the hobby and hope to log many hours on the variety of planes I've started collecting!
Cheers!
