Good morning to all-
Last night right before bed I looked at the wall where I have my little micro warbird rc planes hung up safe and out of the reach of aggressive house cats, and I realized I was looking at a small part of my past- something I had not thought of in a long, long time.
In my misspent youth, I assembled model airplanes- not vey well, I must admit, but with considerable effort. I can remember thinking when I was about twelve or so that I would so much like to be able to actually FLY my model airplanes and not just build them and then look at them. And that's when last night I realized that with my recently acquired mini warbirds here in my old age, I was doing what I wanted to do when I was twelve.
I have the same airplanes now as I did then, and they are about the same size and dimensions as my long-ago model planes, but these little planes can be taken to the field and put up in the air to answer to my direction- for good or bad.
Isn't it interesting how things turn out in life sometimes.
you all be safe and keep well- Ed
