This is a common debate between RC pilots and those who hold a pilot's
license. Like I said before I don't knock those to enjoy the RC thing.
It's fun for many but it's a totally different experience.
Sure, there are similarities in the respect that both have wings
and go up in the air. But that's about it.

I did all of my flight instruction in a Cessna 152. After I soloed I
flew the 152 and a 150 quite a bit. I did the cross country phase and
final check flight for my ticket in a Cessna 172. All the Cessna's were
high winged aircraft.

After a while I wanted to try something different, so I arranged for a
checkout flight in a Piper Warrior which is more powerful and low
winged. Felt like I was flying a Boeing 747 by comparison.

That all said, I am glad I did it but I also realized I am not a
"natural" pilot who enjoys the stresses of flying. I like boating much
more.

I agree with all that, and most importantly, boats do not fall from
the sky when you screw up. :-)

Don't these new boats have the S.A.F.E. technology? I'll bet Harry's does, so he can
navigate ferocious inlets.

I've never used my SAFE switch. Never had enough time to get to it.

I assume you mean panic mode?


The beginners mode sounds highly desirable while you're just getting
started.

Yeah, panic mode. The beginner's mode takes a lot of room. The plane will not turn,
climb, or desend as rapidly. I flew it in beginner's mode when I first got it, but
twice put it in trees because it wouldn't climb fast enough. Upon lots of advice, I
quit flying in beginner's mode.


You must be approaching 30 posts so far today on your toy
airplanes...will you set a record? Stay tuned.

Would you rather see anti-social ****?


Are you referring to your racist, anti-black posts?

I'm referring to the last 247 posts you've made.

The Bozo's Bin...is it full yet? Are you heeding Eriksson's advice - if you don't
like it, don't read it?
