I have always loved airplanes and I have flown models for many years going back to my childhood and rubber band power. I got into RC flying in 1957 when single channel began and dropped out of RC when the gear at the time was not very dependable but stayed in touch and in 1974 I purchased my first proportional radio system and have been flying RC ever since. I built a full scale clipped wing Cub. I purchased a set of plans from Wag Aero in Wisconsin and built the Cub in 3.5 years in my basement and garage. I flew the Cub from 1983 until I sold it in 1995.

I like flying aerobatic planes and giant sized one, I purchased a Hanger 9 46 percent Ultimate I loved flying and I own a Qui Que Python, Hanger 9 Beast, a Aeroworks 50cc Ultimate, Hanger 9 Edge 540 and too many planes to take up the space to list.

I am also into trains as a hobby and own two 1.5 scale locomotives and rolling stock and my grandson and I belong to a Railroad club and we haul passengers behind our locomotives, one is a steam engine and the other is GP-40 diesel and is powered by four deep cycle Marine batteries.
