What you building there Andy?
Do you have to get a pilot license for it?
If you really want something you'll find a way ... ... if you don't you'll find an excuse.
I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either

I was out kayaking early before the fog burned off and it was so quiet and peaceful, couldn't resist a photo. It's not the best, but not bad for a flip phone camera.

Lower quality, flip phone pic adds a dreamier quality, I like it.

I've got a private license, but the FAA isn't involved with this.
Big ol Turbine RC jet.
You have to get a waiver to go turbine but it's not a big deal to complete.

Good luck and God speed on that first flight.
