I went through all the pages from day one. I'm lost for words... How in love can one be with an aircraft ? eek Amazing work !
Seeing his son getting older as you go through the pages is a good indication of how long it took him to complete the model.

Insane !

Cheers

Nico

I'd like to see the Cobra and Mig-21 when he's done with them too.

He must have been sweating bullets on that first takeoff roll. I know I would.

Heck, it looks like the real deal when it's up and flying.

Amazing.

Awesome video, and I bet his heart sank when he realized he was going to have to land it on 2 wheels. It seems the shock dropped the gear. I was wondering why he didn't kill the engines before landing, though, because it seemed like the thrust pushed the plane back out on the runway.

I could have done without the Linkin Park, though LOL
