The 13th Annual Hatbox Field Memorial Fly-In is coming up October 10 and 11, 2014. This event, hosted by the Three Rivers Area Model Plane Society, draws in model plane enthusiasts from several states, and features all sorts of remote controlled aircraft, including planes, helicopters, an even giant planes with wingspans of more than 10 feet!
A while back, my kids had a chance to see a smaller exhibition of
model airplanes in flight. They thought
these replica planes were awesome. I
thought likewise of the pilots, who had the planes doing loops and dives that would
rival what we had seen at an air show. I
took the chance after the show to interview a couple of the pilots about how
folks could get started with the exciting hobby of building and flying model
airplanes.
