This home page is devoted to my favorite hobby, over the years I have had several hobbies including motorcycles, ham radio, rock hounding, woodworking, geocaching and radio controlled (RC) airplanes.  Although each hobby is/was enjoyable the most exciting by far is flying model airplanes.  I am a member of the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) and the Mid Columbia Soarers.  If you would like to get started in this hobby I would advise you to subscribe to a magazine such as Quiet Flyer which is devoted to gliders and electric airplanes.  You may also request a catalog from Tower Hobbies and Hobby Lobby.  There are a myriad of other retailers that can be found with an internet search.
