As for the why young people start building planes i can say it`s a mixture of lack of patience and someone to get them started, i have learnt most of what i can from my dad and from learning of myself.
The biggest reason i have to build balsa planes is that i love the way planes are built, and i hate fiberglass and foam planes, they kind of don`t have a soul or somthing. My point is that to build these planes from balsa you must have a very big interest or you got to have someone to give you the interest, and as i see it less people are making their kids interested in this kind of hobby.
And i read that someone here don`t know what things the balsa planes can do as the ready to fly plastic ones can.
My ansver to this is this: a ready to fly plane can do most things you read on the box. while a balsa plane can do what you build it to do, and there is little limitations of what you can do.
And when you build a plane and fly it, it feels a 100 times better than if you buy a pre built.
I build and fly balsa models because of the happyness of looking at a plane that i built, vhen i fly it.
