That's an awfully big "if". And one that encompasses a huge number of assumptions (but not, I suspect, much actual data). BTW, I also fly r/c models from time to time. And do a bunch of other stuff as well. As do many other women. If you don't know about us, perhaps it may be because you're not looking.
