Bob's Airplane Humor |

First of all please don't take this personally it is only meant as a joke!
As I heard the story Bob made this great little paper pilot for his plane and one of his friends said; "That's a nifty little pilot I can't imagine what you could do to top it, unless you could make him flip you off". So Bob went home and made an arm and hand and hooked it to the rudder servo so that when the rudder turns the hand swings up. It just goes to show you that us indoor flyers need something better to do to keep ourselves amused. I thought it was pretty funny just watch out for the left turns. By the way Bob does a great job building indoor and outdoor scale models, many of them complete with rivets and other great detail. He also builds a lot of different planes. I like the fact that several of the planes he has built are replicas the full scale light planes we used to fly. That's a great nostalgia factor. Come on down and join the fun and camaraderie. Remember the indoor flyers, fly all winter, plus on rainy, windy and cold snowy days. It really helps keep you in practice, I know my flying has improved since I started indoor flying. Another benefit of flying more often is that you are less nervous when flying outdoors. If your hands shake when you fly, the only cure is to fly more often and more regularly. |

I publish Metro Area R/C Flying to make a central web site for all the area R/C clubs, not to replace individual club sites, but to tie all of them together and promote growth and interaction between clubs. The most important service of the web site is to post the Metro Area Schedule. The schedule lists all the events for all the clubs in one location so that R/C flyers can see what events are available in the area and plan ahead. I believe it will also help the area clubs to work out their schedules so that one clubs events, will not conflict, with another's. The next most important service is to provide a Map Page that has maps to all the events, meetings, dinners and parties. Right after that comes the Newsletter Page which lists all of the different club newsletters. Reading other club newsletters lets members see what others are offering in the area that they are interested in and promotes interaction between clubs. Perhaps an even more important item is the New Flyers Page that gives new members information they need to join a club and become part of our R/C community. This is your web site, if you would like to show-off your newest plane, or share an experience, you can E-Mail pictures and articles to me. There’s an E-Mail Link on every page.
