Modeling has been a part of my life since my youth. I achieved my RC Wings in 1974 with the help of the Bluewater Flyers. While living in Calgary in the 1980's I developed my passion for scale models and scale competition, owing in large part to the "Classic Scale" contest series run by the Stampede Club. In more recent years, I have been flying my 1/3 scale Super Cub in contests, and working with the Kawartha Flyers to host "Kawartha Classic Scale".
