For this you are proud? Wow baby! I've flown a lot of radioless
aircraft but damn, a JRC isn't that expensive and I keep on in my
bag at all times.
WTF is a JRC?
Its an inexpensive hand-held radio. One I've used in the Champ, Chief,
and J-3. Its hard to understand why anyone would fly around in a non-
radio airplane w/o putting out a few bucks for a radio.
Because they didn't exist when I did it?
Are you asking me? I wasn't around during the days of the Wright
brothers how would I know?
My assumption is that the OP is not asking if it was safe to fly
without radios in 1910, I believe he was asking about today.
