Who has been flying helicopters the longest?

[gazmk2]

Hey guys

I just wondered, who among us has been flying r/c helicopters the longest? I'm nowhere near! (1 year)

Slightly random I know but i'm curious to know these things sometimes!

Cheers

9yrs, 2 with the Sabre but most of that was hovering in the living room or garage because the weather was always shyte & it couldn't handle the breeze from a gnats wings. So proper learning with the Trex 450 since 31/5/07

I know, Pete just seems old, sorry wise enough to have invented them

I've no idea if your really that tall or not? maybe you are? Pic please with something for scale. I once worked with a guy who was over 7ft tall

Actually 6ft 7 & 3/4 doesn't sound that tall anymore lol
