I knew he was headed down the wrong path when he bought that Jeep... the path to the dark side.

Looks like a lot of fun, congrats on the quality time with your son; that is becoming more difficult each passing day.

And great pics!

Re: VTblazer...where are youuuuu?

Those are very cool, always wanted to get into RC planes as well, just never have pulled the trigger.

Funny story, my Grandfather and uncles were/are all pilots. My grandfather had a Piper J-3 Cub like you have in the picture.

He used to fly it from his house to a lake house about 100 miles away that he inherited from his brother. Back in the 60's he didn't have much instrumentation so he would just follow the highways to get there. Apparently it was pretty underpowered because he said when there was a strong headwind he could look down and the cars would be moving faster than him! I always thought that was amazing. Glad to see you are having fun with your son.
