For me the flying bug got me when I was about 4yrs old; every week my mom would take me to the airport to eat Mcdonalds and watch the planes.
Kinda like yours, except it was my grandpa, and we'd go to Rally's, get some good greasy fries and a burger, then go to MIE to watch planes and listen in on the scanner to the communications. We'd also built 2 RC planes together and flew them. I have a 3rd I'm going to build this winter and suprise my grandpa with it.
