<DIV><FONT face=Arial>How about a Vapor? It requires really calm
conditions, but it could not be easier to fly. It gives you lot's of time
to think and it gets the whole up-down, left-right thing cemented at
least. Might be a good way to gauge real interest in going further, plus
it's a good toy for you if it doesn't pan out!</FONT></DIV>

advice</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>I hope this isn't too far off subject but I would like to ask
for the list's advice and recommendations.<BR>Some of you in D5 have met
my youngest (11 yrs) daughter Elizabeth. Up until now she has told
<BR>me she has no interest in learning to fly. In the last week or so
she seems to be showing a slight interest.<BR>She has started talking about
wanting to "build" a plane with me. I don't think I can hold her
interest<BR>with a full blown kit construction, especially with winter here in
Iowa just around the corner and the chances of having <BR>it done before it
turns too cold slim. Also, I don't think I want to try to get her
interested with some fire breathing<BR>glow plane that may intimidate
her. What about an electric sailplane? Anyone have any suggestions
along<BR>those lines? Anyone been thru this before with one of their
kids? Nothing would make me happier than if she took<BR>up the hobby but
I realize I need to go very slow and let her get in to it at her own
pace.<BR>Thanks for any ideas!<BR>JLK<BR>
