I hate all you guys!!!! I tried to learn how to fly twenty years ago with the help of an instructor on his schedule. What a pain in the butt... Had to drive twenty miles to the field, glow plugs, fuel, balsa wood planes. Three months to build each plane, monocoat covering, slow drying glue. Did I mention what a pain! Two planes destroyed in a short time. Gave up.. About six months ago a buddy told me about blucor and rcgroups. Since that time I have built ten planes from blucar and have taught myself how to fly!!! I read and learn new things here everyday, I'm hooked.. Thanks to all of you for your help! A big thank you to Gene Bond, that p51 is awesome!!!!

Foamies (Scratchbuilt) is my favorite forum.
Hey, my kudos go out to all of you. I have to single out Tony65x55, because I think his two threads- the BluBaby and the SE5a are incredible for there simplicity, ease of construction, flight characteristics (pretty important) and the participation of all the members who post. You guys are fantastic! Great videos, great build pictures, and great comments and recommendations. I am building the SE5a right now as a result. My hat goes off to all of you. I have been mostly lurking, but this deserved a mention from me. Thanks guys, Bob.

For myself, I think it best to simply thank ALL the guys who have posted builds, plans, and suggestions to others for building tips and methods.
I lurk and read FAR more than I post, and seeing how you guys do things has saved me quite a lot of misery in the time I've been here. Thanks guys, for the help (and patience!) shown in your dealings with "The Crisis of The Moment" . BTW, if we took up a collection to cover his bills, could we keep JETSET44 chained to a drawing board to keep him cranking out his amazing designs?? Iain |

I truly appreciate you all. This place is the encyclopedia of foamie scratch build. With all the new ideas share for more growth in new technical development, I find them as inspiration when I'm troubled and usually the answers are simple.
In some cases we are just scratching the surface. P2-betterfly ~v~ |

To start with I would need to thank WaterDog for the plans and great build guide for the STC. The STC is my first build, so I hope to thank many more people here on the Foamies forum after I get a chance to build some more planes. I was into RC many years ago.....I still remember cleaning all of the oil off of my balsa, silkspan, and dope aircraft. The foamies are so much more fun and the ingenuity, talent, and willing to share here is great!
I also want to thank many, many people here, especially GPW and msmith for their quick and expert answers to all of my nooby questions...there has been a bunch! This forum is much better than having a teacher as you have many teachers here. Thanks all, Ray |

I owe a lot to many of you whom have become friends to me thanks to these forums. Some of you I have had the good fortune to meet in person and others are known to me thanks to the internet.
Special thanks to TOG, EWO, Gene Bond, Gpw, Jerber, Tim H, Bluecorebasher, String, SR 71, MrFlash, Firetrappe, SPFD-E-FLYER and the many more who have helped me learn new skills. Without the help of all of you I would not be where I am today. Jerry |
