Testimonial from Henry Zwolak President Niagara Region Model Flying Club www.nrmfc.ca 

       I also received a letter from an old friend of the club, Clarence Ragland. Clarence is an amazing individual. I call him the model plane whisperer. About 6 years ago, Clarence came to our field to train pilots who never flew before. He took 5 student pilots who never flew prior to meeting with him. In the space of a few minutes ALL these pilots were flying by themselves and even landed the plane – solo - all without assistance from him or anyone else. Clarence has perfected a training method that would be unbelievable except that a lot of our veteran club members witnessed this incredible day. Anyway, Clarence recently wrote me and he is offering free lessons to anyone who would like to take advantage of them. His website is below. Clarence is located in Lockport, New York http://www.abchobbyshop.com/Lake_Ontario_Flyers.html

Do you keep crashing your park flyer? We provide flight instruction so you can finally have fun flying your Firebird, Red Hawk, Sky Fly, and any electric heli - all in less than 30 minutes of instruction. 

Promotion plan

We also offer to train school teachers, other industry members or anyone else to not only fly, but also become flight instructors themselves. All of this can be done within 7 days.

Hobby shop owner and/or their employees can come to our flying site to learn how to fly RC aircraft to become skilled enough to offer their customers a 10 minute fly before you buy hands-on experience, much like auto dealers allow potential customers to have a test drive.

School teachers can learn to fly so they can create aeromodeling programs for their students. Everyone currently in the hobby/sport is aware of how extremely educational RC aeromodeling is. Want to get kids off the streets, away from the computer and back out in the outdoors? Quit complaining about bad kids and do something about it.
