Default Age ,occupation , How long have I been flying helis

I am 64 years old soon to be 65. I was an auto technician for Mercedes Benz for many years then opened my own shop for twelve more years. I've been flying helis for thirty years, I started in 1986 and I'm still at it. I only fly Nitro and I only fly large 60-90
sized mostly so I can see them. I am blind in my right eye. I fly mostly Miniature Air.
I know they're out of buissiness But I bought a lot of them before I retired. I have 18
1004s 2 pro two K s and I just sold my gasser.

I've been into RC for many years, especially mini sized RC car/plane/heli. I have been flying MSR/MCPX/NanoCPX since MSR came out few years ago. Now just came back to heli after a few years' break since I can't seem to learn it well. Now I just learned how to flip and roll outdoor with my CP helis, and still learning inverted hover. It's a long way to learn but I admit it's still fascinating when just looking at these tiny helis hovering in my living room..
