    Pilot Ryan and Captain Mike in the Salad Days: video before MotionRC

    I have stumbled upon a video of Pilot Ryan and Captain Mike before their MotionRC era I believe.
    It is a video on the Tower Hobbies site giving the unboxing review of the F6F Hellcat. It is great, and is advertised as the First Unboxing Video ever.

    I believe you can see it at youtube under the title: "Tower Hobbies F6F Hellcat What's in the Box."
    The site at youtube is: youtube.com/watch?v=_svVQSJpvLE
    If you cannot find it there, go to the Tower Hobbies site and find the Tower Hobbies F6F Hellcat under the sale site and click on the video 1 for the unboxing and the video 2 for the flight by Pilot Ryan.
    It is just great. Maybe Pilot Ryan and Captain Mike could comment on the early days.

        "Salad days" is a Shakespearean idiomatic expression fo refer to a youthful time, accompanied by the inexperience, enthusiasm, idealism, innocence, or indiscretion associated with a young person.
        From "Antony and Cleopatra": "My salad days,/ When I was green in judgment, cold in blood..."

          I see Bill. Thanks.

          Sean we started RCATC Sep 2012. Capt. Mike and I will have been with Motion RC two years in May. Motion just turned 2 itself in December. I was talking with Mark before they officially opened about the model industry and so on. At the time RCATC hadn't been around long but I knew we were on to something. They thought so as well. Soon we took over social media duties and became the official youtubers and photo team. Awesome stuff!

                    Stars! You guys are funny.

                    Bryan, not only has Mike played a Japanese pilot but he's played a GI Joe action figure in the FMS P40 review on RCATC, also some Russian dude on a Trojan vid. He's Bat Shirt Crazy!!

                          Bump for funny ISH. Mike has a very distinct waterford accent. Always wondered if it was real or him goofing around.

                            Don't know if it is Waterford but it for sure is real. One of the distinct attributes about him(besides being a damn good pilot) that I noticed when I met him in person at NEFI this year
