Now that's a model airplane!


Got this in an email from an Air Force friend of mine. Not sure who the guys in the photo and video are, but they sure do take their hobby seriously. From the text of the email...

A B-52 flying model with 22 foot wingspan! Actually has 8 "real turbines" at about $1500 each! Took over 2 years to build. Takes multiple pilots, as there are so many things to control.


Click HERE to see the video of its first flight. It's 8 minutes long, but pretty cool.
