Hello all,

I am new here and have a quick question. Here's a little background first. As long as I can remember, my dad has wanted a radio controlled airplane. The moment I heard about some being sold, I jumped on the opportunity. These are large planes and probably very expensive if bought new. I don't think he'd want to fly it without knowing how first. Unfortunately, my dad lives in a little town in Southwest Virginia and I am trying to find out if there are any training areas to help him learn how to fly the plane. I haven't told him about his gift yet, and I am hoping to purchase some lessons for him as a "Christmas present" with the plane. If anyone knows of a place near Pulaski, Dublin, Blacksburg, Radford, or any other surrounding areas, or know of a way to find out, please respond.

Thank you for your help!
