Hello All.Since january I became a member of the forum. I live in the Netherlands and my age is 72 years old. I have always loved things that could fly and start moddeling at the age of ten years. I learned a lot of my father who was also a moddeler. First I did free flight. After that, control line for many years. In the nineteens I decided to become a pilot glider and in a year I had my PPL And have many flying hours in my log. In the year 2010 I became ill due to a heart failure. I could not fly anymore. So there was my old hobby .....model planes. I became a member of a local modell flying club and learn to fly. It was more difficult as I thought. First you have no feeling and second too much rudder. But in a year of many hours of flying with an instructor there was the time to do it on my own. Everything was good so I got my model flying licence. After some years I decided to become a side member of the RC SCALEBUILDER. So here I am. This is all about me. Regards, Timo Montagne, The Netherlands
