As the title says, lets see some sexy model planes being put together this winter!  :P

I built a very rough ejection seat and added a pilot to my Sea Harrier this week.........

The pilot's name is Sharkey after this guy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigel_Ward

Simon, much like farm animals you never name the pilot in your planes. It makes it to hard to deal with their "retirement"
Takeoffs are optional. Landings are mandatory.

Well, we found "Hans" in the field already...   You should be cleaver and add a para for him!  lol!  At least we might find him sooner than later.

Isn't that when you then get "Sharkey 2" etc?

With the bad weather and crap ive not been able to get much flying in before today.  Just so you guys dont think ive been sitting around looking in my mailbox doing nothing I figured I would post a picture of my latest project as im almost finished it!  Its been a lot of work but its coming right along. 
Yea 400W/lb should about do it.. But wouldn't a nice round 500 be better?

I don't think that will balance Ed - it looks a bit lopsided..... ???

Im not finished it yet Simon.  when its finished I think it will be perfecly balanced.  I might be a little off balance but that is another problem all together.

If you find yourself off balance, it just means you're not holding a big enough glass.
