Re: B-29 and the X-1

That was really cool ...I tell for a minute there i thought he lost it when you saw the skydivers pop out of the B-29...Upside down now that has to be a first for a B-29....Great pilot he is.....Thanks for posting that.

Check this B-29 Fly-By Video

If you thought diecast was an expensive hobby, you really to look at this one. The video will take some time to load, but worth the look.

The spin recovery is fantastic.

Re: Check this B-29 Fly-By Video

I can't imagine having the patience and skill to build something like that. If I did, I don't think I could fly it - I'd be too afraid to crash!!!!

That guy sure has some RC flying skills!

I merged these two threads since they had the same video.
