I am 73. Bored. Banished from playing softball forever because of my hip replacement. Never had a remote plane or helicopter. Always wanted one. Grandson is 7. Wants to play with me instead of his little sisters. Grandaughters are 4 & 2 want to play with me instead of brother. I Want one!!! There are 10 reasons instead of 1.

Assistance in getting and keeping flying sites

Sanctioned events – more than 2,500 annually

There are lots of events (2500) so I have lots of opportunities to take my grandson to them. He is just getting interested in planes, flying and all the science that goes with air. This would be a neat win to share with my grandson.

I’m near retirement and think it might make a hobby to keep one active.
