A fun new video about flying scale model airplanes
By Dr. Bill Harris, of Hawaii
A lifetime compilation of modeling, from Bill's beginning at age 6, through his most recent activities. Over the years, In addition to his model-building, Bill managed to become a doctor, hang-glider and sailplane pilot, a musician, a composer, author and lecturer.
Various models built during his youth were reluctant to fly, initiating a determination to prove that they could be made to perform...eventually! Even when handicapped by windy conditions and limited indoor flying space, Bill persisted, and seeing these models in action should provide encouragement for anyone frustrated by stubborn rubber, CO2 or electric-powered subjects.
