Took this picture of a couple of Steermans this morning:

Then proceeded to strap on a parachute and jump in the front of 751 there. Not my video of course, but same pilot, basically same plane, and many of the same maneuvers. Skip to 2:50 for the good part.
I build RCs like people would have done back in the '90s ..................................... if they had 3D printers.

This sh.t is starting to freak me out a little bit. I was again looking at another Tamiya that is hard to find in the US, and I find this. I am not making this up!! :mrgreen:

Clearly, that box doesn't contain a Bruiser clone or a Grand Hauler. :wink:
This obsession with size comparisons helps to confirm that the world has lost its collective mind. :|

Driving to a job in South Los Angeles and stopped at a light.
Looked over and just thought I should take a pic. Very random.

If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.
