<div dir="ltr">Jim,<br><br>If you like to build, the Mountain Models Flashback is a nice flying plane. You can frame it up in about 3-5 hours, and is a true delight to build and fly. It uses small, inexpensive motors and batteries. It will be significantly lighter than any ARF, although it is a bit smaller than the others (Brio, etc).<br>
<br>See more here: <a href="http://www.mountainmodels.com/product_info.php?cPath=25_153&products_id=233">http://www.mountainmodels.com/product_info.php?cPath=25_153&products_id=233</a><br><br>I will also endorse the F3A Shockflier that John spoke about. It is a good flying plane, although it can be blown around by winds greater than about 5 mph.<br>
<br>Let us know what you get!<br><br>Brett<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Oct 9, 2008 at 9:30 AM, J N Hiller <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jnhiller@earthlink.net">jnhiller@earthlink.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I'm a 'fair weather flier' and winter is rapidly approaching here in the<br>
inland northwest and there is a little used park within walking distance of<br>
my residence. Since my retirement I enjoy the added time in the shop but<br>
need to get out nearly every day. I am not currently flying electric and<br>
have no interest in 3-D but I would like suggestions for a pattern capable<br>
(masters) "Park Flier". I would like to comply with the 2 pound park flier<br>
weight limit if possible however all suggestions for airplane and equipment<br>
would be appreciated.<br>
Thanks<br>
Jim Hiller<br>
