Actually, you have a better chance of getting struck by lightning TWICE. . . than winning the lottery. Having said that, your chances of winning are far better than mine if you bought a ticket to play.

I admit, I troll another forum. And I am SO SICK of all the ranting over the FAA and AMA registration stuff. Get over it people. I really love it here, it is so much calmer. Thank you.

I need to figure out where to post this. So here is good for now. I can move it later if necessary.

Some of you know that I am really good friends with Tom Hintz the owner of FlyingRC.net. He is a tell it like it is kind of guy and does a lot of reviews. If something is crap, he will tell you it is crap.
Anyway, Tom has Alzheimer's and one of his dreams is to fly at Joe Nall. His desire was to have build a Top Flight P-47 and fly it at Joe Nall this year. Unfortunately, the plane was outside of his budget and he had all but scrapped the plan. Then he gets an e-mail from Triple Tree asking him how "the project" is coming and that they will register him for free for the event. Tom was heart broken and didn't know how to tell them the project was scrapped. So he did the next thing he could think of, e-mail me and and another guy that lives in Dallas of his dilemma. I have known Tom for close to 10 years. He is a stand up dude. So I purchased the plane, motor, servos and retracts and had them sent to Tom so he can realize his dream. Not cheap but you can't put a price tag on friendship.

I am going to fly to Joe Nall in May and be there when he flies the plane. Anyway, I am going to keep up with Tom's build and progress towards his dream and try to keep everyone here at 3DRCForums up to date.

Awesome Bill!!! I too have been in that same position. I do hope you keep us informed of the project and if there is anything that I can help with to help make it happen I hope you will let me know as it is for a good cause. What I helped with was with a guy in my other hobby, ameture radio, and was great to help him out before he went silent key...

Pictures would be great when you get them, love to see a project come together!!
