I give these model builders and fliers a lot of credit.

Enjoy. CD.

Nice SR,
I have always been a fan of that aircraft.

Thanks for sharing the video,

Mike Balzer :)

Wow! The SR-71 is my favorite plane of all time. That's really cool. I wonder how much time and money that guy has tied up in that thing? He could probably build an RV. Or at least get a good start on one.

Here is a tomcat vid that has been around several years.

I believe there was one of a B-52 that ended up in a smoking hole. Will try to find it.

Notice the comment about $50,000 worth of turbine engines and the servos up in smoke?
