All right, first and foremost I love the RC plane hobby. I love RC planes...I love building them...I love flying them.
I also, for the most part, enjoy socializing with people, making friends in the hobby, etc. Occasionally I have what me and my wife call "people overload"...where sometimes we just want our peace and quiet. I think we all those moments sometimes.
When our RC club has its meetings and folks are there with the planes, flying, etc. I get sucked into the world of chit chatting moreso than flying. It seems like some of the other older guys are the same way. I may have a car full of planes ready for the day, but it's possible they may sit there on meeting days. Part of this honestly, is fear of crashing in front of fellow members. I've crashed em before and gotten to a point where I laugh and shrug it off (well depending on the plane). So, not really bothered if I crash...it happens. But in front of my fellow club members, I don't think so. And really, they are a great group of guys who are definitely more there to offer help than to criticize.
And going back to what I was saying above, I actually enjoy flying when I am the only person at the club. It's peaceful, quiet, no distractions, etc. And no one else will see me if I crash.
