Zone G - Ottawa Valley

I got into the hobby when I received my first plane for Christmas in 1973. It was a Cox control line. I have built several control line planes
since.
I ventured into many areas of this diversified hobby, including some light combat, aerobatics and played with rockets for many years. In 1996, I became interested in radio control. I have also flown gliders, rubber powered free flight, glow powered free flight, electric planes and helis, floats, skies, wheels, 1/4 scale gas, 1/3 scale gas, aerial video, AIR HOGS etc. My favourite is large gas powered planes.

It was my passion to fly that motivated me to join the Brockville Model Aeronautics Club in 1998. I am the current President. In October 2005, I became the Deputy Zone Director of the Ottawa Valley Zone.

I am self employed, managing an office equipment sales and service business. I am very happily married to a wonderful and understanding girl (Tina). Who is very understanding when my friends call
to ask if "Claude can come out to play".

As the new ZD I am looking forward to meeting more hobby enthusiasts. I am ready and willing to give assistance whenever needed.
