Are there any good hobby shops in the Santa Ana area? I will be out there on business this week and will likely have some time to kill in the evenings. Would like to poke around in a good shop or hook up with one of you locals to see what you guys are flying and where. Thanks, John Hayes

Tustin? You'll be on top of Ultimate Hobbies on Tustin Avenue. And closer to JAXs and Hobby People's Warehouse store in Fountain Valley than Gryo. Not to say you shouldn't go to Gyro... that's cool and you'll be close to Bill I suppose (we have not met). Hobby People's warehouse store is down

Jeff is right on top of things with his previous posts. I personally think Jax, while smaller, has more soaring related stuff, but either way, gliders are a small part of their core business, unlike cars, boats, and slimers. Jax's slimer focus has dwindled quite a bit by the closure of the
