Subdeacon Joe Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 World War 2 — the US Navy uses two line controllable kites as moving targets for gunnery practice. The kites could be flown from the ground or from a ship. If the winds were light, or to make them more difficult to shoot down, they could be flown from the back of a moving Jeep.

Tennessee Trapper Tom Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Went from that to RC airplanes. While in the military I tried to get in the RC military occupational speciality. I had been flying since I was around 13 years old. Hell, they wouldnt have hardly had to train me in much. No dice, I was in a critically short field and couldn’t change jobs.
