like I said… only reason I’m not okay with that photo… I know a guy I’d rather not like to see bombed in pest control… y’know? And for the record, I knew it was a Lancaster. knew a guy who built “museum grade” 1/4scales for very-local airshows (think count fairs and kids at schools. they were all R/C, mind. Those were beautiful. Even better was the ‘kiddie scale’ b-25… that he’d open up and let the kids go inside and go to town… it was scaled so it would ‘feel’ full-sized. Yes. He’d disable the engines, but the control surfaces all worked. Like handing the kids crack-laced sugar.)

But. the jokes… the hellfire missile we’re talking about has blades that spring out on it. probably a billion+ R&D racket there…
