Edward Hannevig Biography

-A A +A
Model biplane on grass, with bright orange upper wing and silver body.

I grew up flying Control Line in my neighbor's field. I later started flying the radio control at about the age of 15, then I had to start flying it out in the neighbor's cow pasture. It is certainly a challenge. I had to eventually remove the landing gear and land the airplane in a tall grass field, which worked out really well.

I did quit for 15 years. Found a hobby club, Portland barn stormers, while out riding motorcycles with a friend, and that’s where it all started for the second time in my life. I've been with that club since 2008, even met up with a high school teacher that I took an aviation class with. This is a picture of my favorite airplane.
