homemade airplane...
Too cool.
Apologies if this has been posted before. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1237180 THE WIDER VIEW: Three years in the making, it's every boy's dream... the ultimate home-made model aeroplane (and it actually works) By Jason Lewis, Mail on Sunday Security Editor Last updated at 12:30 PM on 20th December 2009 * Comments (70) * Add to My Stories It's every schoolboy's dream - from the tiny rows of ammunition to the miniature cockpit canopy gracing this stunning model aircraft. It is an exact replica of a P-51D Mustang which was America's primary long-range fighter plane during the Second World War. And it was made by a retired dentist who used some of his instruments to create it. Built on a 1/16 scale, every part is fully functional, linked by an intricate series of minuscule chains, cables and hinges. technomaNge -- |
