Thank you for the welcome. I fly with the two McMinnville, OR clubs, and also join the guys from the Portland Area Sailplane Society for most of their discus-launch glider events. I've been around for a while, flew RC during my youth in Switzerland, then flew paragliders for many years. In 2009 I came across an RC event at the Evergreen Aviation Museum which pulled me right back into the RC hobby. I fly whenever I get a chance, which is luckily quite often. My favorite plane is my 91" Extra from Extreme Flight which I completed about a month ago. I also have their 60" Extra, and the 48" Edge. Another fun plane is the FunCub which serves double-duty as a buddy-box trainer. I love the smell of glow planes, but prefer gas and electrics.
