Delivery of Model Planes

This is one of my motorbikes used for travel between Chicago, Montreal, Boston, New York City, Toronto and area. This particular model gets 65 miles per gallon in the city. This has been a great tool for summer fun and model aviation.

I’ve been personally delivering model planes to Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto and surrounding areas for free. For the outside-Ottawa cities I’ve been coordinating deliveries with other trips and workshops. This is helpful for promoting model aviation, science, making things and is also really fun.

Lately I’ve been getting a lot of requests for people to pick-up model planes in the Ottawa area and I’m starting to like that because of efficiency (hey come to me instead of me going to them).

I’m considering doing local pick-up only and then saving my free deliveries for those who want to do some actual flying (or some other arrangement). I think it makes more sense. Especially lately as I’ve started to do more model airplane activities just for fun.

In fact the more I think of it, the more I like the idea of having my regular model plane meetups for the Squirrel and having people come by for pick-up. If I have one about once per week, that should make life easy.  Then I’ve got public relations, pick-ups and some social all rolled into one. Of course the people doing a pick-up may elect not to join the social. 🙂

I want to do more model planes and less logistics. Thoughts?
