Seems like we had a thread about this man and his build back about the time he was finishing it up. Funny the things that amaze you. I kept looking at that nose blister and thinking, “What an accomplishment to recreate that!” Of course, everything about the build defies description. Sorry for his widow. _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||

That would be the only thing that could make that video better - a small monkey in the turret shooting blanks !! ![]() | |||

Awesome talent and commitment. Obviously loved his hobby. I'm glad to hear that he enjoyed it before he died. --Tom The right of self preservation, in turn, was understood as the right to defend oneself against attacks by lawless individuals, or, if absolutely necessary, to resist and throw off a tyrannical government. | |||

I wish I could have shown this to my dad. He passed away last year. He was a B17 pilot in WWII. I think he would enjoyed seeing what this man did. Thank you for sharing this video,1s1k. . | |||

That would have been cool. It would be interesting to hear from someone who actually flew the real thing. | |||

Several years ago, he was able to give me tour of one when an airshow came to town. The pilots that had flown it there were aboard; they were very respectful and allowed him a great deal of access in the cockpit. It was a moment I will never forget. He never opened up about his time overseas until about 18 months before he passed, after his first stroke. None of his children had a clue, because he never talked about flying in battle before. I was glad I was able get some of his remembrances on video. . | |||

Wow, that's impressive! Obsession, for sure! Place your clothes and weapons where you can find them in the dark. “If in winning a race, you lose the respect of your fellow competitors, then you have won nothing” - Paul Elvstrom "The Great Dane" 1928 - 2016 | |||

I was expecting a massive R/C, but was pleasantly surprised. I remember a scale R/C B52 years ago, maybe 1/10 scale. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Wow! When I first started watching this video, I thought it was an RC plane, then when the pilot got in it, I was totally blown away! Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice. ʘ ͜ʖ ʘ | |||

He used plans for a 1/10 scale RC plane and scaled them up. Just amazing. Here's an interview with him before it first flew: | |||
