Greetings!,
When I was in high school, I built my first plane, a Goldberg Eagle 2. My family was not into this hobby but were supportive. I was very passionate about that plane and getting it of the ground. Ultimately, I only flew the plane twice because I was too scared to crash after creating this beautiful thing. I later flew gliders and they were really easy to fly on the farms in NC. It helped that I had a friend who also wanted to fly his glider. I enjoyed that a lot but then life happened and 16 yrs later, my 3.5 yr old son and I are getting back into it. I am slowly teaching him to fly and we are building the FT mini scout together! We also have a Champ (aka 'Mr. Yellow') and a Timber (aka 'Darth Vader').
Regards,
Matias 'Heinrich'
