I've noticed that several builders of R/C flying scale have shown up on the
list and I was wondering if we could get an idea of how many and general
geographical locations.

Built and flown

1/5 scale Bristol F2B 150 flights still active
1/4 scale Nieuport 17c 3 flights being rebuilt by friend
1/4 scale Fokker D VIII 13 flights destroyed
