wow, get a big UFO and fligh that around peoples house:)
Some great photos there Lui. :)
I remember taking my Dad and his mate up to see something similar at Wroughton some 20 odd years ago. We saw a huge Concorde model there.
They'd have loved that show.
Also agree, some cracking pics taken. Looked like a pretty good day mate.
Just forwarded on your pics to an RC fan of mine, I think he'll like em :)

I take it those Jet planes actually got jet engines in them.However the size of them they most go very fast.What kind of range must your transmitter have to fly one of those?Nice pics :)

All jets there had jet engines in them all doing in between speeds of 200-300 MPH + sounds awesome & transmitter range as far as the eye can see & more.
Also have great collection myself 7 heli's & around 30 + planes 80% of them doing over 180 MPH fastest being my sport 40 plylon racer doing in speeds of excess 275 MPH

That Eurofighter looks cool.
I'm really into scale models and appreciate the work gone into some of those Warbirds. :thumbs: Have a large P51 myself but havnt flown it in years.
Any helicopters flying?
At the moment I'm building a Swiss Army A109 and have spent the last 3 weeks alone working on the retractable gear
Received a Nightflyer go slow unit this weekend from the US so the serovs work to scale on the landing gear.
Great pic's Lui, there are some stunning model's there. If I had the money i'd have a crack at flying model plane's myself.
