If I couldn't do aeromodelling, I'd be drawn back into full size flying - but I'd need to increase my earnings and get rid of the visual migraines first........

Full size gliding is my other passion/pastime - I'm proud owner of DG101 VH-GLK. Unfortunately "
Good
Luc
K" is in its box & gliding is currently on hold while we build our retirement home on the local airport air park - hangar at the rear & house at the front.
There is a strong aviation community in Temora, including the Military Aviation Museum
https://aviationmuseum.com.au (where I plan to volunteer - eventually
), aero club & gliding club. My airworthiness & instructor ratings have lapsed for the time being.
Growing Australian native plants is another enjoyable pastime. I've been propagating plants for our retirement home garden & wee orchard for several years, with over 300 plants currently in the nursery.
There's also electronics & computers, and a heap of model railway gear for the grandkids (of course
) in boxes awaiting a permanent home.
Hey, I'm an aviation nut & modeler!?!

When I say lapsed Phil, I meant that I had not touched a mike or a key in many years, although I am still a member of GQRP Club.
I really should get a long wire up again sometime.
