Model B-52

I’ve always been a remote control plane lover. Check that, I’ve always loved airplanes in general, especially WWII era replicas. One day in the future I’m going to build myself a Corsair or a P-51 and fly it, most likely into the ground. My friend Jim and I used to fly RC gliders in our youth until we both crashed them and if I remember correctly into each other. Jim and I got hooked on the whole RC thing by going to a RC show in Pasadena back in the early 80’s. One of the coolest things I ever saw was a RC jet model of a Korean War era F-86 Sabre. A JET! Holy Shiite a friggin jet! That is sooooo kewl! I want one. It used a ducted fan intake engine that sound just like the real thing. While surfing around today at Cold Fury, I found a video of some guys who built a RC B-52 bomber and crashed it. That plane is awesome. Page down to find the link to the video and while you’re there take a gander at video of a real B-52 taking a dive.
