I joined NSRCA about 2 years before I started competing
because of the Buyers Guide. It was a great source
of information on top quality RC equipment. I
started competing due to the prompting of Bob Schofield
and Ken Alexander. I always had an interest in
competition but never met anyone that was into it.
Prior to Bob Schofield joining our club, no one in my
previous 2 clubs competed in anything.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Other than
health or finances I don’t think I’ll ever quit. I
fly more now than I did as a sport pilot because I now
have a motivation to get my butt to the field even when
the weather sucks. My flying skills were stagnating
as I tried to bore holes in the sky as a sport
pilot. I wanted to learn how to fly the plane rather
than have the plane fly me. Competition especially
pattern was and is the ticket. Also by competing you
learn an awful lot about how to properly build, trim,
program and setup any airplane. You even learn how
to tune and maintain the most advanced engines/motors
around. I’ve learned more about this hobby in my 5
years in pattern than I would have learned in a lifetime
otherwise.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
