MICHAEL YORK:PILOT AND RC PILOT

摘要

I recently had the fortune of becoming a contributing writer for Model Airplane News and Electric Flight, so I figured I'd tell you a little about myself. I was born and raised in the Swiss Alps and moved to the Houston area with my family in 1980. I've always had a love for aviation, and like many kids, started out building plastic models at an early age. This progressed to stick-and-tissue free flight models, which were flown in meadows or off of mountain slopes (and never to be seen again!). Once in the U.S.,I built my first radio control model, a Balsa USA Nomad sailplane. I was hooked for life from that point on and over the last 30-some years have built almost every type of model imaginable, be it land, sea or air (yes, even a blimp). I stilt enjoy the actual building of models tremendously.
