That's way cool.  Leather would really like it!  (If he hasn't already seen it.)

If you have an accident on a motorcycle, it's always your fault. Tough call, but it has to be that way. You're in the right, and dead -on a bike. The principle is not to have any accident. If you're involved in an an accident, it's because you did not anticipate. Then, by default, you failed.

I've got two videos of a 1/10 scale B-52 RC plane with REAL jet engines.  Its absolutely awesome. Some guy in England built it.  The sad thing is in the second video it crashes. :o
I don't know how to link them to post though.  Input?

All EIGHT of those jet engines is a functional piece.  They are not ducted fans.  They cost something like 2500.00 each.  Somebody has too much dern money.

Amazingly like the real B52 crash. Looks like the same angle. The original was too low too slow. It lost lift as it became vertical to the ground. Most have seen this but for those that haven't.......
