RC airplane videos.........

[HumorMe]

Takes a lot of experience to do this. I know it looks kind of boring but the concentration level is pretty high. The first part of the 3 videos might be uneventful but the last parts of each one has a camera mounted on the top of the airplane and gives you a good view. It is set to music so it is pretty easy to watch.

My brother-in-law is into these things and he had the exact same airplane in the 3rd video until he sold it and bought a jet. He now flies the jet at RC meets and is pretty darn good with it. The speed on his jet reaches 230mph. He brought it home during Christmas(he has a covered trailer just for his jet) and flew it for me. The jet is pretty large and is loud as hell. I wish I had some video of it to post but at this time I do not.

Anyway, watch these videos and enjoy.

Ouch man. Go with a jet. They are unreal plus no prop. It's amazing how realistic sounding they are and fast as hell.

He has about $9000 in his jet not including his covered trailer and accessories.

That will work too...lol. I have a nephew that is an independent computer programmer and has made a lot of money doing it.

He has a twin engine Cesna that he flies around to each job. He also bought two more vintage aircrafts that he is restoring. He's very talented.

I knew I spelled Cessna wrong!

One day I was in a restuarant eating by myself when I heard two guys sitting at the bar. I knew they were not local people so I started a conversation with them.

Turned out they were delivering an aircraft (vintage) to Florida from New Jersey and they landed at the local airport. They were spending the night and needed a ride in the morning to the airport.

They offered to take my up in it for a ride to the airport and I agreed.

This is what they were flying....

He took me up in it for about thrity minutes and did all kinds of barrel rolls and climbing and diving. I almost threw-up but I had the time of my life.

It was funny when he opened the hangar doors and there was this huge puddle of oil on the ground under the engine (look at that pic) and I said something about and should he check it....he said "that was normal."

Yep and the cockpit was an open cockpit so I was greased up pretty bad when we landed. They even wore the leather helmets and goggles and the scarf...felt like I was the Red Baron or something.
